Hi,

a user have complained that he can't get proper Bold/Italic styles
when using the OTF version of my old Tempora LGC Unicode font 
with XeTeX. The font itself is obsolete but still available at
http://thessalonica.org.ru/downloads/tempora-lgc.otf.zip.

A minimal testcase file would look as follows:

\font\x="TemporaLGCUni-Regular" at 12pt\x
Test.
\font\x="TemporaLGCUni-Italic" at 12pt\x
Test.
\bye

When processing this file, an error is generated and no pdf 
is created.

Running xdvipdfmx -vv produces the following output:

otf_cmap>> Creating ToUnicode CMap 
for "/home/alexios/.fonts/TemporaLGCUni-Italic.otf"...
(CID:/home/alexios/.fonts/TemporaLGCUni-Regular.otf[LRKMXU+TemporaLGCUni-Regular]
[CIDFontType0][28 glyphs][4427 bytes])
(CID:/home/alexios/.fonts/TemporaLGCUni-Italic.otf[CGEOAY+TemporaLGCUni-Italic]
[CIDFontType0]
** ERROR ** CFF: Parsing CFF DICT failed. (error=-3)

(There is no problem with the regular version.)

So, what else can I do to dig out what exactly is wrong with the CFF
dictionary?
