Sorry, I'd rather say there is too little space on top, not too much, the two characters are practically stuck on top, while there should be--FontForge and Pango show it--some additional space. Are you sure our outputs are the same?<BR>

Well, no, it certainly *does* look into for kerning pairs -- your and my
tests obviously indicate that there is *lots* of kerning between the two
glyphs in question, in fact, *too* much.
So XeTeX does kern, it just does something wrong in the process, perhaps
adding some additional kerning value on top.
