This is from Jacob Poon's report of 2007-10,
https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106274

Integral (U+222B) in bold font is slanted instead of upright.

Tilde and slash in Mathematical Operators (U+2200-22FF) in all font variants have diagonal stroke terminators instead of horizontal or vertical, which does not fit the design in the rest of the font. Ironically, slash in FreeSerif is actually designed correctly for use in FreeSans. For that matter, Inverse lazy S (U+223E) in current font is more proper design for the tilde.
(The inverse lazy s was the tilde. see below.)
(Made tilde into a normal tilde.)
(slash issue will be put in another report)

Inverse lazy S (U+223E) looks more like tilde instead of letter S. The bug does not exist in other font families.
(made more like an S)
