The (more or less) vertical lines are handled as segments – this is really wrong. Already working on a fix.

Bug 48499 is awfully similar and was supposed to be fixed too.

Bug 41334 comes to mind. One should not hint this glyph at this size.

The W glyph in the attached Data.ttf font is rendered incorrectly in FreeType 2.8. See the attached screenshot for comparison with FontForge (left) and Adobe Acrobat (right).
Also attached is a PDF with the font embedded.
