I looked a bit further, and found that it is in many encodings, but on
different positions. The solution is however much simpler: LaTeX defines a
dummy \textdgree as
\ensuremath{^{\circ}}
so I came up with the attached. This reduces startup time for math documents
from 9.8 seconds to 6.8 seconds (1.4cvs, qt) for me.
I propose to put this both into 1.3 and 1.4. OK?
