defoma is written by one person, and he is allegedly
the only person who knows how everything is supposed to work.
They are supposed to generate PS font database and
fonts.dir etc. for ttf according to information found in
/etc/defoma/hints/, provided by other packages.
Anyway, I think there are two different problems you are experiencing.
Basically, you are having problems parsing japanese text with gv.
Do you have the following packages installed ? :
gs-cjk-resource
gs
cmap-adobe-japan1
cmap-adobe-japan2
