I just tried to convert the same font with a trial version of  
BitFonter 3.0, a $500 commercial bitmap font editor, and it shows the  
same exact bug as Fontforge!

So I guess it's either a bug in OS X or a weird setting in the  
original BDF font.

The fonts are displayed the same way in both OS X 10.4 and 10.5
