I think you must be looking at either .otf, or updated .ttf fonts (if there is 
such a thing). The issue under discussion here (as I understand it) is 
*Apple’s* distribution of .ttc (truetype collection) fonts. Have just checked 
again (just to be sure) and have confirmed that Apple’s .ttc files contain no 
composed fractions, though subs/subp and dnom/mumr do seem to be there.

I suppose I could unleash fontforge or similar and put something together for 
my own purposes, but I’d rather not.
