This problem seems to be solved in the current CVS. [I thus mark the bug
as fixed. However, it's not completely fine due to jumping glyph
widths at 11ppem (this is 8pt at 96dpi) -- we are working on this.]

Please forget the comment regarding jumping widths. This was an error
on my side.

Tony Nelson <tonynelson at georgeanelson dot com> reports Per your request on fedora-list to test the DejaVu fonts, I installed them via yum on FC5 and tried Sans Mono in gnome-terminal. Wide characters (e.g., "m") overlap the following letter in at least sizes 9, 10, and 11. DejaVu cannot be used as a terminal font until this is fixed.
