The result of bisect is apparently real. Ran that, it fixes the problem, then
applying the commit, and it breaks:

$ git show 0b9ba054f6c8a2d96c898e7325087f56a6224644 | patch -p1 \
&& make clean && ./configure && make depend && make

As I said, another workaround is just copying Vista-shipped tahoma* to windows/fonts , or deleting wine-shipped tahoma* and let substitution from system font happen.
It is curious why german translation has effect on english locale.
