Hmm. That's interesting. This font claims to be ISO8859-1 and 0xa0 
is definitely not a nbsp. I ran xfd on it and it displays as an
alpha there...

This is just a guess because I haven't seen the code, but Pango may be 
handling known spaces in a special way.

Is this a freely available font that we might look at?

I don't believe it is. It's called Key Courrier, but I wasn't able
to find a copy of it in any public area. 

I've previously only used it in OpenLook (under the same OS I'm
currently using) and never had any issues with it there, so your
assumption about pango could very well be right. I'll have to take
a look at the pango src and see if I can find something there.

Thanks!

Brooke
