Hmmm, do you know what version of gtk you're using?  We used a hackish
method of getting the X font description from the GdkFont, and it may have
changed in newer versions.  You can also check the gdk include file
/usr/include/gdk/gdkprivate.h (or whatever prefix you have gtk/gdk installed
under).  The GdkFontPrivate structure there should have a names member.

Hopefully we can squash this bug.
