I disagree.  There aren't any `poor hints'.  The font is simply
designed to be rasterized as B/W only in this very range, and indeed
it renders quite fine if you do so.

The gasp table also says that you should use B/W rendering for those
sizes.

As you've correctly mentioned, there are serious problems with the
`post' table, but the hints are OK.
