Not to my eyes.

I'm not sure I get the question right, because both pieces of software
under test are supposed to have the TorBrowser patches applied.

I skimmed over the only obviously font-related patch, and as far as
I understand it, it is not supposed to trigger such behaviour.

I also had a quick look to see if an iceweasel patch was about fonts,
and did not find any.

My next bet would be to compare TBB's and Tails' Firefox configuration.

Cheers,
