so i've taken a look. courR24.pcf to be exact...

and this font looks broken. the font (freetype) header indicates the font has
zero height. FT_FaceRec for the font has bbox dimensions of 0x0 (min and max),
ascender and descender are 0, height is 0...

so this is why - freetype says the font is zero height. so i can only assume
elsewhere there are bug workarounds for this font, but freetype is indicating
it is zero height and thus why you get the results you do.
