Actually fontconfig and freetype sources. We currently just use whatever we 
get from fontconfig which is the english name. I don't really remember if 
this was a missing feature of freetype or fontconfig.

In case you don't have Xft2/fontconfig: xlfd's only support us-ascii for font 
names ;-)

Lars
