I've always assumed it was first implemented in the X11R6 SI. I'm
positive it wasn't implemented in X11R5.
I am 100% positive that the Type 1 and Speedo backends did implement
subranges in the X11R6.3 SI, which is what I used when first working
on xfsft. I didn't pay much attention to bitmap fonts then.
A common mistake is to use a dash rather than an underline in the
subset specification; are you sure you didn't do that when you
formerly tried?
