That's part of the problem, but not exactly on point. Mozilla handles
these websites well, if the character set is defined correctly.
When I has this problem, I found that the foundation of the problem
was the ttf-commercial package. It was installing a bunch of lines
into fonts.dir with lots of encodings which didn't seem supported by
freetype or the fonts... in any case, removing ttf-commercial fixed
this problem.
I never looked into the problem more... I have a feeling using the xtt
module instead of freetype would have cured it, at the cost of having
to use the xtt module.
