Bug#760435: libglib2.0-0: Missing characters in GTK apps

Hi all,

This looks really similar to a bug on freedesktop.org "Font and screen corruption in GTK+ applications", but attributed to the intel graphics drivers, rather than libglib2.0-0:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88584

Also, on the "semplice" GTK distribution based on Debian sid, some users (incl. myself) on the forum have reported this problem, and they all use intel integrated graphics, so there seems to be a trend. This thread for example, where I posted a trace found in /var/log/syslog relating to DRM and i915 (not sure if really relevant, though):
http://semplice-linux.org/community/viewtopic.php?pid=5713#p5713

I experienced the problem yesterday again with following version of libglib2.0:
ii  libglib2.0-0:i386             2.44.0-2            i386                GLib library of C routines
ii  libglib2.0-bin                2.44.0-2            i386                Programs for the GLib library
ii  libglib2.0-data               2.44.0-2            all                 Common files for GLib library
ii  libglib2.0-dev                2.44.0-2            i386                Development files for the GLib library

This might be triggered by a combination of factors like: intel graphics + 32 bits + some versions of libglib2?
Hope this helps.

Cheers

Marc
