argh.  I looked and I was using pango-1.6.0 and gtk-2.4.14 on the 
NetBSD/alpha box.  When I update pango and gtk to 1.8.1 and 2.6.4
to match the versions on the solaris box, I have the same display
problems.  So it seems that gtk-2.6 and pango-1.8 just don't
like displaying on this solaris box.

Does this force the use of true type fonts or something which isn't
supported by the solaris font server?
