Done. Pushed along with some other minor changes. I've checked this with all the known bad glyphs, and they render fine now, with the correct initial hintmap. One issue remains, from MunhwaGothic if you recall, the right pointing hand (U+261E). I checked against another font, which looks fine. From the debug output, it's likely the former has bad/insufficient hints, and perhaps the Adobe hinter is slightly overzealous in moving points. In this case, it is better to use the autohinter or turn off hinting, but I wonder if we could, or should, detect such a case, or to leave the judgement call to the user? OTOH, it only goes messy at low ppem, at usual reading sizes, the wonkiness is considerably less. Perhaps nothing needs to be done (the fault does lie with the font...).
