And the patch is simple. In TRUETYPE.C, change these lines:

/* Shift next glyph by the width of this one */
total_offset[X] += ffile->hmtx_table[glyph->myMetrics].advanceWidth *
funit_size;

to:

/* Shift next glyph by the width of this one + any kerning amount */
total_offset[X] += (ffile->hmtx_table[glyph->myMetrics].advanceWidth +
kern_value_x) * funit_size;

I tested this with the POV-Ray 3.1 source, and it seems to work properly.
