Uh, oh. This was caused by a very embarassing bug: one of the central bytecode routines to round to integers was buggy. Since the fix (already in the git repository) considerably improves the appearance of a lot of fonts, I'll soon do a new release of ttfautohint. Anyway, the central question remains: What to do if hinting might exceed the usWin values (e.g. by using ttfautohint's -x option).
