Renaming that file allows Oswald to render correctly.
What it is about Oswald (and no other fonts I checked)
that makes it screw up so badly, I have no idea.
My guess would be that the browser may have misidentified the font, and
it's being rendered with data from something wildly different.
e.g. Try rendering a 24 point font as if it were a 2 point font, and
I'm sure layout would be scrambled.
