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.
