Display Resource Editor font problem

    I've just installed OpenSUSE 11.0, and found that the DRE in IC 5.1.41 shows
    a "funny" (very unreadable) font. Look here:
    http://www.jwdt.com/~paysan/dre.png

    After doing some reverse engineering with ltrace, it turned out that the
    font used here is "fixed", i.e. instead of using the Opus.labelFont
    resource, the DRE uses the default font for its menus and file browsing.
    This is "fixed", and the fixed font is described
    in /usr/share/fonts/misc/fonts.alias. Up to now, the entry was

    fixed -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1

    and in OpenSUSE 11, they decided that it should be the unicode version:

    fixed -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60--iso10646-1

    This causes DRE to fall over.
