I got the same results as you got, both in 2.3.9 and 2.3.10, but I
installed the ec-fonts version 1.0.2 from the font-downloads to solve
it, at least in 2.3.10. The 1.0.3-fonts are not compatible, so I
wonder what the difference is between them. FYI, I am not working at
my normal station so I can not investigate this difference.

There is however a strange thing with those files. They claim they are
unicode compatible, but when I compile a russian i.e. in cyrrilic text
the output is not the wanted text, but it contains extra letters, but
in not-cyrrilic letters although they are slavic for the
Balkan-countries.
