Well, it looks like it's coming from FreeType.  There was this problem with 
Freetype once, but I thought it was fixed.  Strangely, it doesn't affect 
dfonts, just TT and OTF fonts.  Snow Leopard is OK.

I can look into my FreeType framework to see if I messed up something in a 
recent update.

The equator is so long, it could encircle the earth completely once.
