Me too, now. I think perhaps a bug might have been fixed in a recent
update.

When I use the following command line:

    $ for f in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/linux-libertine/*.ttf ; do
        fontimage $(
            for n in $(seq 5 30) ; do
                printf " --pixelsize %s --text %s:Back-to-back:_][_" $n $n ;
            done) "$f" ;
    done

I get the imagess attached to this message.

They don't contain the divergent heights and thicknesses that is the
behaviour reported in this bug report, so that's a significant
difference I suppose.

I will have to find some time to start a minimal environment to do
that test.
