Doing some searching, I found a similar issue last year regarding a font in wireshark (note 0x6ead == 28333): http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2008-April/msg00008.html http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/15052 http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/15209 http://graphviz.org/bugs/b1318.html The "fix" was to disable the freetype renderer for +quartz... well that's all well and good for the +quartz variant, but what about the X11 users? It looks like the problem is persisting for X11 -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/19171> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
