variable font mismatching glyph outlines

hi! i have my first VF using FL8, two axis. everything works now as needed -except the © glyph. it does not export that gyph in the font.
® is working fine.
if i delete the ©-circle, the remaining c-shape does interpolate well over both axis.
trying to solve my problem, i copy/pasted the circle from ® into ©, check start nodes and PS directions, match masters, but that ends up in the same mess with assigned outlines and/or points? how can i solve this and how would you call this incident? thanks for thoughts!

Looks like mismatched contour order. Go into the FL8 Elements panel and check that the order of the contours are the same in all layers (if not, drag the contours into the same order).1

Don’t use match masters? I always manually manage the contour ordering.0
