Good idea, but not really enough. With this, there'll be a wait when the first math is done instead. The question is - why? Can we avoid looking at _every_ font when looking for a symbol font? Probably, as this seems to be a qt-only problem. And if looking at all fonts really is necessary, then consider moving it into the "reconfigure" phase, and simply cache the symbol font name found for the future. The only ill effect of that will be that users who install a better font will have to "reconfigure" before using it. I don't mind the simpler fix for 1.4 though. Helge Hafting
