The hinting on the original Vera characters seems to have somehow been 
stripped out; Linux' auto-hinting still handles it quite well, but the 
same can't be said for Windows' font renderer.  Looking at the files in 
FontForge, the individual characters' instructions still seem to be 
there, but the 'fpgm', 'prep' and 'cvt' tables, which are called upon by 
the font renderer for hinting purposes, have somehow disappeared.
