I have ugly fonts in thunderbird after updating my Debian sid today.
It happens both in the body of mail (received and sent) and in the
interface. The problem is also present on my second computer with
different hardware but some software (Xfce + Debian sid).
This mail was rejected by the Debian mailing list the first time with the
error
"550 5.6.0 improper use of 8-bit data in message header"
so I am gessing the font problem must be a encoding one.
The update did not delete any package. It must be a bug.
See ugly fonts screenshots:

I am using Xfce on sid and do not see any font corruption in
thunderbird. What are your desktop font settings?
I am using Liberation Sans for desktop and GUI, full hinting, and in
/etc/environment I have:
FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=truetype:interpreter-version=35
We got a tiny fonts-liberation update but I did not notice any change.
Kind regards,
