It took me a while to see that you actually don't use the tex live font
but a broken one from ctan ... fontforge also crashes on it and typetool
immediately runs out of memory ... i'm not sure if i want to check in
which loop it sticks (already wasted an hour on checking the other fonts
you mention).
