Interestingly, I found a copy of Tahoma/Tahoma Bold inside Microsoft's WEFT:
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft3/weft01.htm
("cabextract WEFTIII2b1.exe" then "cabextract fonts.cab" then "wine tahoma.exe" will put the two in Wine's C:\windows\Fonts)

But unfortunately its not redistributable.

(BTW, WEFT appears to be part of *yet another* sinister Microsoft plot to make the web proprietary; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_OpenType for some info; its basically DRM for fonts online... not surprisingly, only IE supports it, though MS would like it to become a 'standard')
