This is a geniuine bug in cenon.app, reproducible on i386 in sid
(squeeze is OK).  I filed a separate (grave) bug against cenon.app, so
please exclude it from any tests.

I was wrong when I said DejaVu is the final fallback; that's the case
for the cairo backend only.  BitstreamVeraSansRoman-Roman is tried,
then FreeSans.  Do you have ttf-freefont installed?  If not, then the
-art backend package must surely depend on it.  If yes, running with
--GNU-Debug=ftfont might give some clues why this happens.

I couldn't reproduce this on i386, so it might be a kfreebsd-specific
bug either in GNUstep/Cynthiune or the media libraries it depends upon
(Cynthiune loads dynamically all available format bundles on startup).
A backtrace is needed to analyze this.
