Bug#409729: gedit: lowercase letter 'm' too wide + derived problems

[Jaksa Markotic]

Package: gedit
Version: 2.14.4-6
Severity: normal

When monospace 12 is selected lowercase letter 'm' is too wide (wider 
than all other letters).  Letter m is of normal width when displayed in 
larger or smaller monospace fonts.

Easiest way to reproduce this bug is to open a new file and type 5 
letters 'm', newline, and 5 other letters. The first line will be 
longer.

I didn't detect this directly. Instead, i noticed it when I had letter 
'm' in a 7-character word on the beginning of a line. If you press tab 
after this word, you won't get a single space, instead you will get 9 
spaces.

I don't know if this is a gaim bug, but I had to report it somewhere. I 
did it here because it only happens in gedit, and not in oowriter and 
gnome-terminal when using monospace 12.
