Upstream fontlint now has applied the suggested patch (and some other nice 
checks):
http://fontforge.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fontforge/fontforge/fontforge/psread.c?r1=1.83r2=1.84
Thanks Kevin for suggesting it. AFAIK no fonts provided by the distributions 
were affected. The change 
will hopefully prevent them from ever getting new fonts with the old problem.

The Type1 SEAC-Operator (Standard Encoding Accented Character) is very 
limited and 
compared to subrs it only has drawbacks. So it always was deprecated for CFF 
and 
PS-OpenType fonts. Still there are some fonts that were converted 1:1 from 
their Type1 
counterparts which didn't decompose the SEAC operator into two subr calls. 
These fonts 
should get properly converted.

If there are still some important fonts which use SEAC for their accented 
glyphs in the 
StandardEncoding then adding support for this obsolete feature should be 
considered.

Also see http://blogs.adobe.com/typblography/2007/05/typotechnica_2007.html :
Developers asked about the need for decomposing SEAC glyphs. SEAC is an old 
and very 
limited composite glyph mechanism from the Type 1 format. It only works if both 
the accent 
and the base character are in Adobe StandardEncoding. SEAC has been deprecated 
in CFF 
and OpenType, and is not well supported in all enivronments today. If using 
FontLab, go to the 
preferences for Generating OpenType PS (.otf) and make sure the option to 
Decompose all 
composites is on.

Is this something fontlint warns about?
If not could you contribute a test to fontlint so font distributors can test for
this pattern?

I'm not sure whether fontlint already warns about this yet, but the related 
fontforge project is already 
aware of the problem as the quick grep over the source shows
fontforge/splinesave.c:/* Type2 doesn't allow any seacs */
What is meant here are the Type2 charstrings and these are used in about every 
PS-OTF-font out there to 
define the glyph outlines.

If fontlint doesn't warn about it yet doing so would be a good idea.

Also see 
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/opentype/index_composite.html :
  In the CFF/Type 2 charstring format, the seac operator is not supported.

The priority of this issue depends on the importance of the fonts that have 
this problem. I do not expect 
them to be plentyful since if they were important enough to be maintained they 
would not use illegal 
operators. Anyway, here is the start of the list:
- Yanone Kaffeesatz
- older versions of FreeFontPro

Correction: current versions of Yanone Kaffeesatz use only non-deprecated 
operators. Thanks Jan!
