 This is a really strange problem that doesn't immediately lean itself to
 being pinned on a certain port:  apps that run on +no_x11+quartz variants
 of Cairo, Pango, and GTK replace the "fi" character immediately when typed
 (or shown) with the UTF-8 double dagger symbol (‡).  This is not a
 64-bit/32-bit issue, as I have personally identified this same issue with
 the binary beta release of Banshee (http://download.banshee-
 project.org/banshee/banshee-1-1.5.3.macosx.intel.dmg).

 The issue occurs in all text-based forms and effects the characters shown
 in any combination (for example, any dialog that reads "Loading files..."
 appears like "Loading ‡les".

 The issue did not appear the last time I had a compile of this same
 toolset, approximately in December.
