Description:
Saw GNOME Character Map on the Utilities or Applications 
section of the foot menu. Wondered what it did. Clicked it.

Apparently its function is to pauses, go crunch, invoke bug
buddy. and then make a "gcharmap --sm-client-id56etc No 
response to the SaveYourself command" dialogue box appear. 

Coool. :)  

More seriously, this is a RH 7.0 box which I upgraded from
6.1 and bits because I suddenly started having font problems.
I never believe it when other people say it, but "I didn't
change anything". I just rebooted, all my fonts were weird,
and I thought "oh well, it was time to upgrade anyway". Despite
upgrade, weirdness still abounded. Things like u-umlaut were 
showing up as hollow fonts and so on. I don't know whether 
this is relevant, but if gcharmap pokes about with the fonts, 
then possibly it is..?

I have a decent strace output but it is long :) 
I have the output of xlsfonts but that's long too.
I have this stack trace, and that's not nearly so long!

Say if you want either of the first two.
