I believe I have fixed the problem with the bl*.ttf fonts.  I exposed
FT_Set_Charmap via font.set_charmap in ft2font and calling
font.set_charmap(0) seems to cure the problem with the bl* fonts.
Apparently, there isn't a default charmap set for those fonts - no
exactly sure.

In any case, I updated CVS -- make sure you have at least revision
1.10 of ft2font.cpp and the updated script at
http://matplotlib.sf.net/share/font_table.py

Have fun :-)  Perhaps we should move further discussion on this issue
over to the matplotlib-devel list.
