Image illustrated the problem.

Some fonts apparently does not work when fully hinted (in this case Andika).
The thought is that it is a bug in the font, but I am not sure if this is going
to be fixed. That depends on how much SIL cares about screen rendering. Running
with light hinting works much better so a work-around is to add an option for
switching off or reducing hinting in winecfg.
