General additional information:
- GTK is version 1.2.8

Additional information how to reproduce the bug and screenshot:
- Start Gimp with a JPG Picuture - o.k.
- Press the Texttool button - o.k.
- Click on the picture - o.k., Texttool Window opens.
- Select Helevetica-Medium-14 - o.k. Preview window displays the
  text fine, font information is available.
  (Requested font name is: 
      -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-p-*-iso8851-1
   Actual Font Name is:
     
-Adobe-Helvetica-Medium-r-normal-R-Normal--14-140-75-75-P-77-iso8851-1
  ) 
  This font is available on the system (see xterm on the Screenshot).
- Press OK button - ERROR message appears:
  "Font -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-*-420-1-1-p-*-iso8851-1
  not found."
    
  Why is Gimp looking for a Font of "420-1-1" ???

Notes:
1. It does not matter what kind of font I select with a size of 140, I 
   always get an error message which states 420. 
2. It does not matter what font size I select, the error message states 
   always trice of the size of the requested font. A 180 font produces
   an error message asking for 540 font.
3. The "Dynamic Text"-Tool in the "Render" submenu allows to place a 
   text with the Helvetica font mentioned above.
