Yep that can be a good idea. I don't know anything on how mathtext is working but I'm not completely sure that the problem is with freetype because sometime that can work. In reality every character I tested worked but you have to put in a certain order. To understand a little bit more what I try to say (very badly) see the script join and the figure. I hope that can help a little bit to try to find the reason of this behaviour.
