That is not surprising, but it is not exactly the presence of the 
Unicode font that fixes the problem. If you have a Unicode font, then 
you must have the RO5 Unicode FontManager installed on your machine, 
and that is what makes the difference. NetSurf is happy with the Cabin 
font on a RO5 system or any other system with the RO5 FontManager.

The !ttf2f documentation states that its output is meant to be used 
with the Unicode FontManager.
