I made a mistake. For a short test I started the gtk-demo in wine on
Linux and hoped it might work. I missed to tell this (not unimportant)
in my E-Mail. :-)

Now I repeated the test in real windows and it works. But it's
interesting that it doesn't work with wine. Look here:

and on the terminal:

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "Sans
Not-Rotated 10", falling back to "Sans Not-Rotated 10", expect ugly
output.

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: All font fallbacks failed!!!!

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect
ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderWin32', script='latin'

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: All font fallbacks failed!!!!

....

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "Sans
Not-Rotated 18", falling back to "Sans Not-Rotated 18", expect ugly
output.


(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: All font fallbacks failed!!!!

....

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "Sans 10",
falling back to "Sans 10", expect ugly output.

(gtk-demo.exe:8): Pango-WARNING **: All font fallbacks failed!!!!

Any ideas what is missing to get it running in wine? I don't really
need it, because my app is available native on Linux, but it may be for
testing.
