Here the blue (=3D base mode) actually looks correct, but that just means = that mkiv needs a patch: the base kerns are also generated by the mkiv font loader, after all. It probably got confused by the kerning classes. I expect that it actually did work earlier (pre 0.31), and that what you see now is just a regression. But it is better for me to wait for Hans' comment than to dive into the code and maybe spend hours on a problem that would take him 10 seconds.
