Description Tor Lillqvist 2007-11-01 22:12:49 UTC 
On Vista the default UI font is called "Segoe UI". For font fallback / glyph substitution (I don't know the correct terminology...) for CJK, Indic, etc to work properly in pangowin32 it requires the font to be aliased in pango.aliases to a list that includes fonts for CJK, Indic etc. (This is a bug in itself.)

A tiny patch is needed to enable aliasing also of fonts with spaces in the name like Segoe UI. It shouldn't cause any regressions as old pango.aliases entries wil continue to work as before, so I would like to commit the patch also to the stable branch.
