There is a person from FreeType we could assign this bug to. I don't have time 
anymore now to do that, maybe you could look it up? He has been assigned in a 
few other autohinter bugs in this bugzilla.

Indeed, Fedora would probably never switch to the bytecode interpreter. But 
all I can wish for is that the users switch to it as much as possible. We have 
no control at all about the behaviour of the autohinter, yet users will always 
think it's an error in the font.

Also, I'm coming back on the claim that the first screenshot from Fedora is 
showing an old version of DejaVu. After looking into it a bit better, the 
wrong glyphs are too big for that. The autohinter is being used in that 
screenshot, so I'm afraid that it's also an autohinter bug...
