Bug #330144 breaks en_US.UTF-8, too



I'm using the experimental version of xorg, backported to sarge, from
backports.org (6.9.0.dfsg.1-3bpo1). I've found that with gtk apps,
#330144 very badly affects English text as well.

Steps to reproduce:

$ export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
$ echo "Hello World" | osd_cat -f
'-efont-biwidth-bold-r-normal--24-240-75-75-p-120-iso10646-1'

That displays some random CJK gibberish on screen instead of Hello
World. If you try and select that font in the GTK font chooser, you'll
see that GTK fully intends to use some random (the first one on the
list, actually) font in... ISO8859-1. And it really, really, breaks.

Not sure if this happens on unstable.
