Research direction
Start by running FontForge fontlint against xkcd-script/font/xkcd-script.ttf and review the reported missing points at extrema. Inspect the font's contours and FontForge's available processing functions; done means fontlint no longer reports the extrema error.

CHECKING xkcd-script/font/xkcd-script.ttf
ERROR 5 Missing points at extrema
FAIL xkcd-script/font/xkcd-script.ttf
Looks like this will involve some post-processing of the contours, or a magic function buried within fontforge (probably already exists).
