I apologize for not responding sooner. I went back over the bug report, and I'm more confused now than I was before. Some seem to suggest that it may be a limitation with the simplicity of pango, but I know that it is at least working on 32-bit versions of linux. What needs to be tested then?
I'm imagining that the program would need to test the ... (and correct me lily-list if I'm wrong)... the pango font "hints?" I have no idea what I'm saying. But, to my eyes and mind, it looks like the issue is that something is glitching when the program calls the pango-something or another... whatever...
