Yes, apparently several people have the same problem.  I do too.  My

guess is that it's not a font problem but probably something like a

race condition somewhere, because in my case I've seen from time to

time part of the output being printed correctly.
For your information, about two weeks ago I compiled netbeans 6.5.1

(directly from the source code, not from ports) and jdk 1.5 (from

ports) on -current and the same problem was there too.
