Progress: This is a font issue. If I install 
http://sf.net/projects/corefonts/times32.exe, my test program correctly 
displays the text! The application "Nya Multigram" also works much better; 
most fonts are now visible (but not all). Now I wonder:

1) Isn't it a bug that Wine fails to display the simple GDI+ text without 
MS font? Shouldn't Wine at least print an error or warning? Should I file 
a bug?

2) How can I determine which fonts are "missing" (what the application 
requires)? I've tried debugging with WINEDEBUG=+font, but cannot find 
anything obvious.
