Current width compared to proposed

As you can see on attached image, glyph width of letter 'ы' looks too wide.
Sometimes inter letter interval even looks as a space. I think, that width of
this glyph should be reduced at least by 50-60 points. Second line in image is
rendered with reduced width of letter, and it looks much better.

Following patch is applied to font:
