Yep.  However, sometimes it is not possible to avoid intersections in
GX, especially if you have stuff like the slash in Oslash, which no
longer crosses the `eye' of the `O' glyph if the eye becomes too
small.

Interesting.  What's the rationale for that?  And which ppem values
are `small sizes'?  I would also like to know whether this is a
general thing, independent of the font format (i.e., TrueType
vs. PostScript outlines).
