'lowerleftdoubleninequote' in german seems to be an double

actually 'lowerleftdoubleninequote' are two "," without any
kerning. You can add the kerning by:
\definecharacter quotedblbase     {,\kern -.1em,}

Hans: is there any way to make this default when using cmr?

Worse: With some fonts two different commas are used (I guess one from math mode);
in my opinion we shouldn't make some kerning default, but using the right glyphs!

this is encoding dependent, the default is only a fall back; so, the solution is to have proper entries in the encoding vector; but, not all vectors have all glyphs
