Well, no, it certainly *does* look into for kerning pairs -- your and my tests obviously indicate that there is *lots* of kerning between the two glyphs in question, in fact, *too* much.
So XeTeX does kern, it just does something wrong in the process, perhaps adding some additional kerning value on top. A. -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
