Thank you very much for providing interesting sample,
I have to fix this issue. Your suggestion to prioritize
the tricky font detection checksum than that by family
name helps another issue (tricky font with non-ASCII
family),
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype-devel/2011-01/msg00003.html
so I will apply your patch.

But, there was a discussion that the tricky font detection
by the checksum might be inaccurate for too short table,
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype-devel/2010-11/msg00033.html
so there is a possiblity that I have to revert the change
and improve the condition to detect mangled family name.

Your sample PDF seems to be generated by "Crystal Reports",
if you know any other softwares generating a PDF including
mangled family names, please let me know.
