I just tested a few applications written with wxpython and a few
others written with wxgtk directly. All of the programs I tested
(wxvlc, xchm, drpython, kiki) used the odd/special font I had selected
(to easily see if a program used that font). The problem seems for
some reason to be specific to bittornado.
Although I noticed a strange thing with drpython: The font in the left
pane of the preferences dialog always seemed to use the standard gtk2
font that was selected when it was started. This suggests that it
querys and sets the font itself, because it's for some reason not
correctly set when the program is started.
