With Legendum (http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~slam/fonts/fonts.html) and the unpatented and patented autohinters, FreeType-2.3.0 renders the glyphs contained on the mentioned page or at http://ousia.f2o.org/ not very accurately.

Corresponding source code
It seems that version 2.3.3 fixes the issue (at least partially).
The already attached image shows the present issue: when faking bold accented characters, FreeType does not display accented characters fine.
Testing it further (but not in a completely) with gfontsampler, it seems that Freetype has problems with faked acute accented characters. With all Latin vowels (capitals or not) the accent is displayed wrong, excepting the iacute, that has the letter wrong displayed.
I hope it hepls,
Pablo
