I have been trying quickly. Both solutions

	\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
	\usepackage{textcomp}
	\usepackage{lmodern}
	\usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=true]{microtype}

and

	\usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=true]{microtype}
	\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
	\usepackage{textcomp}
	\usepackage{lmodern}

work (I get in Adobe Reader many fonts with names such as LMRoman10-Regular-Extend_1010), though they seem to have slightly different effects, producing PDF files of different sizes. microtype is v1.3, I don't have the latest Gerben's i-Package installed.

Just in case: did you check you don't have any personal addition somewhere inside ~/Library/texmf, that may be messing things up a bit?
