I downloaded "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" from
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/
and tried it with gedit, but when I choose that font through
the menu: "Edit->Preference->Font&Colors->Editor Font",
gedit doesn't compose the characters (see the attached
image).  How did you specify the font for gedit?
