I've finally released a build of fontforge containing the code for the
'BDF ' sfnt-table.

I'm attaching two (fontforge) scripts that can be used to convert a
bunch of bdf/pcf files into an otb and back to bdf files.

$ fontforge -script bdf2sfnt.pe outputfile.otb strike1.bdf [strike2.bdf ...]
$ fontforge -script sfnt2bdf.pe baseoutputname.bdf input.otb

The first coagulates all the bdf/pcf strikes given on the command line
and then produces an otb file named "outputfile.otb".
The second takes all strikes out of the input file (otb, ttf, otf) and
generates a series of bdf files with names like
"baseoutputname"-<pixelsize>.bdf
