Figuring out font characteristics for Type1 fonts is a mixture of art and 
science; the specs are rather vague and contradictory.  Fontconfig has 
been slowly improving in this area; you might try using a build from CVS 
to see if that makes any difference.  If not, please submit a bug report 
referencing the approprite broken fonts and we'll get them to work somehow.
