"My problem with this patch specifically is that it codes a special
exception for that font, and that the package for that font is more than 10 times (!) larger than the average sizes of the others."

Would it solve the problem to spin this off to a new package, say
msttcorefonts-tahoma, and have it recommended by msttcorefonts?
