I fully agree with you. My point was just to give a workaround while waiting
for the bug correction.
I have prepared a patch that changes the default font to
LiberationSans-Regular in the GD terminal driver. I have tested it and
it works well. I also added ttf-liberation to the recommended
packages. Please find a proposed NMU attached.
Cheers,
Fabian
