Similar to what we do with “post” table names. I’d have said the font is
broken, but all applications I tried it with loaded it just fine, though
they differed in which glyph to pick from the duplicate ones.
Fixes https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/issues/1602
Introduced in CFF2 table, but code does not limit it to CFF2 table. If
FDSelect format is set to 4, it will be read/written regardless of the
table version.
This required a fix to fontTools/cffLib. When reading a CFF2 variable font (VF) from XML, the VF state in FontDict and PrivateDict does not get set. I made a temporary fix by adding a loop to set PrivateDict.vstore for all the PrivateDict objects after the XML file has been read. This should not be necessary, and in the near future I will revisit both this issue, and the related use of isCFF2 when compiling/decompiling.
