Hi,

- From the Release Notes, I can see that there has been a change regarding
new Tahoma font. So I'm suspecting that it caused the following anomaly
on my system (if it is caused by other problem, pls do prompt me too):

I has been able to render Chinese characters in some Window-based
non-Unicode applications (e.g., uTorrent) with the following locale
settings:
	export LANG=
	export LC_ALL=
	export LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8
	export LC_COLLATE=zh_CN.gb18030
Though the fonts were not as beautiful as I could get from Ubuntu
natively, they were pretty much usable.

After upgrading to 0.9.47 (both using prebuilt Ubuntu binary and one
that I built from source), all the Chinese characters were turned into
colons (':') with the same locales. Trying the above locale with
notepad, it works fine, but for uTorrent, etc., no Chinese characters
were displayed.

Do you have any idea if this is indeed caused by the new Tahoma font? Or
if there is anything that I can experiment to fix it?

Thanks,

Freddie
