I can finally confirm that the ttfautohinting does the trick! Regarding the longer examples exhibiting the Umlaut Problem: I have longer examples, but they aren't really usable for you since they occur when using our mediawiki-PDF-rendering-framework (mwlib.rl). I could add more flowables to the minimal example I initially send - but I believe that doesn't really help...
