I can repro this on a stock Tiger install (clean, not upgrade) with these steps:
- Open TextEdit and type "ffffff" (or fi or fl; pick your favorite ligature)
- Press cmd+shift+T to switch to plain text
- From the Font panel, choose Lucida Grande 144 point.
Voila, ligatures.

Yes, I would expect it with Lucida and many other fonts.

Sorry for not being more specific earlier. I left out a detail I put into the original bug; that this was not just an issue with plain text, but was one when using monospaced fonts.

The problem I had was multiple fonts on the system. Apparently, the newer fonts are in a data-fork format, but I still had older resource- fork based files from various older software packages. Once I went through Font Book and cleaned everything up, my monospace fonts didn't show the problem.
