unfortunately the qt library decides whether a tt-font is valid and
usable and if not silently replaces it by another font which is not
what you want for mscore20.ttf. There are some older versions of qt 
which definitely did not work with mscore20.ttf. You should try with 
a recent qt version (3.3.x). 
BTW the current mscore cvs version explicitly checks for a proper
installed mscore20 font.
