(Sorry for the late reply, I was travelling when you posted and
overlooked it when I got back.)  Thanks for the reminder.  I don't
currently have access to a system with this font installed and haven't
made the effort to install it, but I have tried several other monospace
fonts and cannot reproduce the issue either, so I suppose it's no longer
a problem and am therefore closing this bug.
