Beeping, other problems with 1.5
Brought to you by:

With both libgdkxft 1.4 and 1.5 I have very strange
problems. When browsing for fonts in a font chooser, my
computer will beep when some fonts are selected. There
does not appear to be any pattern as to which fonts
cause beeps.
Also, when using libgdkxft-1.4 or 1.5 certain fonts
become unavailable to me, and others are used in their
place. Helvetica becomes completely unavailable, and
either Times or Verdana is rendered in its place.
In addition, certain characters are replaced by a
square. Using libgdkxft 1.4 and 1.5 e-mails displayed
in Balsa with apostrophes have squares instead of
apostrophes in them. Changing fonts has no effect on this.

I have had similar problems with gdkxft-1.4. When I
attempted to change my Enlightenment theme font, many fonts
are incorrectly rendered as something else. Fonts like
WingDings and variants of it are rendered in squares also.
Anyone have any ideas or workarounds?
