Ewww, a proprietary autohinter. I think we are much better off shipping the
unhinted version then, letting the Freetype autohinter do its job. Shipping
the output of proprietary tools is frowned upon, because it means you cannot
exercise your right to modify the font without the proprietary tool at hand.
