Just in case anybody else is encountering a similar problem and bump into this thread, the following was the solution to my problem:

The eexec encrypted section of Type-1 font dictionary is always(?) terminated by "mark currentfile closefile". So, when I re-encrypted my subsetted font dictionary, I re-encrypted up to "mark currentfile closefile".

This turned out was the problem. PS interpreter cannot parse "closefile" as the "closefile" operator until it sees a trailing white space, which also needs to be encrypted. So, instead, the encrypted section must be terminated by "mark currentfile closefile " with the trailing white space character.

Much thanks go to Ken helping me out on debugging the issue off the newsgroup!!
