Weird Tahoma font rendering

I'm testing out Crossover Games 9 with a WinXP bottle + Steam (installed via Crossover) + Half-Life 2 and I'm seeing some odd font rendering with the Tahoma font (installed on my OSX system by default, not installed in the bottle (although I've tried this with no improvement). Attached are a couple of screenshots: check out the a, v, y, o, and other characters. This is obviously not a show-stopper, but it's annoying. I've tried every combination of removing the font from OSX, installing in the bottle, replacing the .ttf from the wine install inside of the application package, etc. without any improvement. Any ideas?

Thanks
Jeremy

(later: sorry this is probably in the wrong place, since it belongs in at least the Games forum. I am pretty sure that the Tahoma issue is a general problem, though, and is not limited to Steam or Half-Life).
