Hi Brian,

IntelliJ Idea (9-beta) still looks as before. Again, I made some
screenshots to visualize the problem.

The first two pic made by using sun-jdk, the last two with open one,
respectively. In each couple the second shot is made by changing the
defaul L&F to a different one in order to make the effect more
expressed.

I have not, however, tried to install dejaVu font, were this as a
prerequisit.

Thank you!
