I'd remove them. if they're critical, only put them back when you need them in another app, or get a font manager.
photoshop is very persnickety about fonts and will have problems with a font that's not exactly right, where another app might overlook an internal font error. my guess is there IS something funny about those fonts, but the other apps ignore the parts that are "broken".
