perhaps related (but not with the iso10646 fonts - but I've seen people
changing the fonts in uxterm to use TrueType fonts):

                  Patch #194 - 2004/7/27 - XFree86 4.4.99.11

     * fix  a  repainting bug introduced in patch #180: when using a font
       lacking  line-drawing  characters,  a  repaint of the screen could
       skip  horizontally  an  extra  amount after filling in the missing
       character  (reports  by  Nicolas  George,  Hans  de  Goede, Redhat
       Bugzilla #128341).
