The only problem is that you conclude that the overlap must be with FreeSans, while I say it is probably not FreeSans as that is already stripped. So, if you spot overlap, you should really also make the effort to find out where exactly it comes from. And so far you've failed to do so. Blindly stripping fonts is not the right way to go about this. I'd first like to see a full inventory which fonts include which font ranges. The tools Davide found yesterday will help with that.
