fontloader: “can't convert <float> into tounicode”

Hi,

loading this font:

    https://collab.itc.virginia.edu/access/content/group/26a34146-33a6-48ce-001e-f16ce7908a6a/Tibetan%20fonts/Tibetan%20Unicode%20Fonts/TibetanMachineUnicodeFont.zip

causes the fontloader to emit a dozen or so messages of the kind

    fonts           > loading > can't convert 7.27550912993e+22 into tounicode
    fonts           > loading > can't convert 3.1248073774797e+32 into tounicode
    fonts           > loading > can't convert 4.731809353839e+27 into tounicode
    ...

example code:

    \starttext
      foo
      {\definedfont[file:TibMachUni-1.901b.ttf*tibetan at 33pt]༡༢་༣༤་༥༦་༧༨}
      bar
    \stoptext

is this harmless? The typeset result appears to be satisfying.

Best regards,
Philipp

in general yes; only can affect rare cases of cut-and-paste from the pdf

(fixed anyway but no upload this weekend)
