    5080 could be interpreted as a GnomePrint bug.
    Basically, since we use our own "shaper" engine, we
    don't exactly match what GnomePrint expects from the
    world. If GnomePrint had a mechanism for specifying
    character widths, we'd be fine. But it doesn't.

    Quite frankly, I could implement Tomas' suggestion in
    that bug, but it really disguists me to do so. I still
    think that we need to re-examine our glyph positioning
    code.
