I just tested that in mozilla; there was no change.  I still got
an x-height of 7 for segments and 8 for curves.

This didn’t happen with early enough versions of the libraries.
It has probably been at least a couple of years, though.

Notwithstanding that, I had been presuming a bug in the font
until the earlier post in this thread....

Incidently, it doesn’t happen with the Italic, DemiBold, or
DemiItalic variants.
