With signed characters, non-ASCII characters (i.e. valued >= 128) are negative and remain so when casted to int.
find_font_index will thus multiply the index with a negative number and look for font data before the actual start of the font. A cast to unsigned fixes this, because all fonts that trigger this if clause's branch have 256 characters.
