What is the starting index of those glyphs in ftview? Could you make a screenshot of the page?
ftdump -v provides glyph indices to unicode mapping... I have some "obviously" broken" screenshots of ftview while testing intemediate versions of the fix but don't have the corresponding "good" one at the moment. Also a pair of broken and good screenshot of gnome-terminal ("ls --color=auto" listings of files).
Just a vaguely related note for testing: it seems that gnome-terminal and seamonkey - and possibly other gtk-based applications - do some sort of double-buffering so when some glyphs fail in some way from underflow within freetype, the whole window stays blank. This is different from ftview which shows very interesting results...
The last of the fix is http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/freetype/freetype2.git/commit/?id=d56e544d6... but somewhat irrelevant as far as backport is concerned, since it is just a comment explaining a non-obvious point to prevent future rewrites breaking this code.
I'll attach some screenshots when I find the time.
