From what I am seeing, this is not restricted to firefox/mozilla. I am seeing the same behaviour with FreeMono in Gedit. I have not tested the other Free fonts, but suspect the behaviour will be the same.
As a suspicion, I would suspect that the effect will ultimately be noticed in any application using the Pango font rendering tools. It may be an error in the font itself that Pango is having issues with.
