Apparently the base glyph for 'a' in 7x14 was improved without applying the change to it's variations. The attached pach fixes the most obvious variations.

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys. Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
Sorry for the late reply. I applied your patch upstream at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs-fonts.html already on 2006-01-05, but this found its way into the X.Org repository head only with today's commit 27508d9b715018d72da71e861934ea36cae928da.
