I'm currently unable to check on how that website looks with Condensed,
as I'm at work, but I'd expect that the breakage is due to the site
designers having done a bad job rather than the font being incompatible.
Making a design rely on the width of a font is always a bad idea (it
also probably wasn't designed with Bitstream Vera Sans in mind, anyway).
We do need a hinted DejaVu Sans Condensed at some point, but I believe
that it does look good enough for production on "slight" hinting. Maybe
I'm biased, though, because I prefer the "slight" hinting in most cases.
