I guess that, if the Verdana issue is really a size issue (unfortunately, I
can't find the report for that issue anymore), a possible solution would be to
check the font's tables for the minimum supported antialiasing size (which is
normally the minimum size the hinting bytecode was tested with), and if the
requested size is smaller than that, force autohinting (similar to how the
auto-autohint patch handles fonts with no bytecode at all). On the other hand,
that may be overly conservative.
