[..] Thanks much for the detailed description! I think I still prefer DejaVu in TextMate, but it is always good to have options.
For those interested, I've whipped up a little script[1] to automate the steps Matt Bauman described so helpfully.
I would definitely recommend copying the offending files into a scratch directory before invoking the script (which, when called with no arguments, will iterate through every .ttf file in the current directory).
It does not automate the installation into Font Book, but installing is as simple as `open *.ttf` (after you've disabled/uninstalled the previous version).
