I think this bug is understood. It is caused by a combination of our hackish channeling of math symbols through wrong unicode code points and some code in qt which is identified in http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7954#comment:11. A safe workaround for now would be to remap the affected glyphs in cmr.ttf (which we ship) and change the numeric value in lib/symbols. Actually I wonder why I did not realize before that we ship the affected fronts, since I did such remapping for other fonts already. I can do that if you want. Georg
