Just a blind guess. Some Adobe fonts use "kerning groups" (a set of
characters with equal kerning on left/right), while most fonts, in
particular all the Polish fonts/LM use just "normal kerning" (kerning
defined for each pair of characters). I suspect that only kerning of
"group of characters" might be broken.
