Moral of the story: upgrade fonts before complaining.
I had an opposite experience a few years ago. It was necessary to
downgrade the DejaVu fonts in order to make them work properly with
XeTeX. I do not remember the number of the broken version.
I also had another experience with these fonts: stacked diacritics don't
work with the mono style font. Six years ago, when I initially reported
this problem, stacked diacritics would overstrike each other. They no
longer overstrike, but the second diacritic winds up instead over the
next base character (to the right in a left-to-right script).
I should probably use some other sans serif font. As I recall, the
problem is that there aren't a lot of sans serif monospaced fonts out
there that have combining diacritics; DejaVu was about the only one,
last time I looked.
