Actually, I just found out that "Latin Modern Math" is inherently
completely broken. If I set it in gedit, even the ASCII chars have
ridiculous ascent/descent. So "Latin Modern Math" is basically unusable
unless a program specifically modifies ascent/descent, like I did.
The reason gedit was working fine previously is that it never used
"Latin Modern Math", it used some other font.
So it makes sense to "fix" a font that is common and inherently broken.
