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.
