I've worked on your patch and generated a test ttf-dejavu 2.25-2 package
whose files are available in [1]; there you will also find an updated
version of your patch and a pdf chart showing all the available glyphs.

As for the size, it got reduced alot:

-rw-r--r-- 1 zino zino   79102  9 lug 13:14 ttf-dejavu-mono-udeb_2.25-2_all.udeb
-rw-r--r-- 1 zino zino  135172  9 lug 13:14 mono/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf

It'd be nice if somebody could take a look at the patch: if everything's ok I'll proceed with creating
the parckage and ping Christian for the upload.

regards,
Davide
