font-misc-misc is critical to this working properly. If you don't have that
installed, we end-up using the built-in 'fixed' font, which only has a limited
set of glyphs (those needed for iso8859-1, I would guess)
(Since 1.5.3-3, the x server has has a built-in 'fixed' font and
font-misc-misc is not installed by default)
