Werner,

I just want to say that I don't like this commit:

commit 27fee7f8c6ae75e066b5a23472b33925c6e8b1e0

    [sfnt, truetype] Always provide default instance.
   

The default instance does NOT need a named instance.  It's already there when the instance-number is not set (=0).

It doesn't make my life harder, as some fonts might include the default instance anyway, so I have to filter the duplicate entry anyway.  It's just unnecessary IMO.
