I'm afraid I don't have an exact overlap-less example handy because the equivalent static font also hints a bit differently, hiding the issue. But I'm referring to the fact that the upper serifs cover the upper parts of the stems but the pixels above the stems are darker, so the overlapping area appears to be double-counted.

I've been looking into various FreeType issues related to the
combination of CFF2 and hinting. As part of that I ran into the
phenomenon represented in the attached capture of ftgrid. Which, to
summarize, has a rendering artifact caused by overlap.
What exactly is the artifact?  I don't see it.  Do you have a
comparison image of the same outline without overlaps?
