Not sure how things are on the PC side but on the Mac side it seems like every time Apple does a major release of their OS it breaks some more old fonts.

Apple blames this on the font not being up to proper specs and always says that if a font is up to proper specs then it should work. Not sure how true this is, probably is, but it sure makes a mess of things in print publishing when a font that has been used in everything no longer works correctly and another font that looks exactly the same has to be found. The new font never has the exact same kerning and leading so text ends up reflowing.
