I've tried rebuilding all my ports today, and noticed that fonts are
missing glyphs now :-/

The following seems to be a snippet that seems relevant, but before I
try to rebuild it all (it takes a few hours here), has anyone seen this
already and managed to find a fix/workaround?

: perl  /usr/X11R6/bin/ucs2any 6x10.bdf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/util/map-ISO8859-4 ISO8859-4

: No glyph for character U+00E6 (0xe6) available.
: No glyph for character U+00FA (0xfa) available.
: Writing 206 characters into file '6x10-ISO8859-4.bdf'.

The fonts lack certain characters after this.  A screenshot of XTerm
started with 'xterm -fn fixed' that shows this can be found at:

Any ideas what causes this?
