Ok, thank you.

So the advice
---
The recommended calling sequence of mf2pt1 is

  mf2pt1 --rounding=0.0001 <other options> <font>

You need mf2pt1 version 2.1 or newer.
---
in README should read

cd mf/
ln -s out/mf2pt1.mem .
FONTFORGE=foo ../scripts/build/out/mf2pt1 --rounding=0.0001 feta13

I'll have a look to the sources of varsegno and try to correct the 
drawing routines as you proposed
in the tracker.

Thanks,

Marc
