Problem with xg font

Reading up on the Unicode spec, it is clear that using the soft hyphen character for something in the eXtremeGammon ttf font that is to be displayed, is a design flaw. Using a tool, text editor, browser etc., that respects the specs, you are unlikely to ever be able to correctly typeset a numbered board where the bottom player is next to act and has homeland in the lower left quadrant.

It would be trivial to fix this for anyone desiring to use the font had it not been for the funny fact that despite being an almost identical copy of an existing font, the xg font comes with a disclaimer stating that changing it is not allowed.
