OK. So I will have to leave it to you guys to figure out what the problem
is, since it doesn't show up on my linux+wine setup. 

Does any recent MSWindows version ever provide a font that truly cannot
be rotated?  It may be that test and the flag for rotatable fonts is
obsolete, and the corrsponding section of code in the routine MakeFonts() 
is no longer needed.

If that is true, the simplest fix may be to change the first line of
MakeFonts() so that it always sets lpgw->rotate = TRUE;
