[plt-scheme] Unreadable Error Messages

I accidentally omitted the list in my original reply to Tim.

Tim has determined that changing the font from Fixedsys to Courier New
fixes the problem. More generally, he sees the problem with
bitmap-based fonts (including plain Courier).

I get garbled italic text using a very specific combination: bitmap
fonts in v299.100 through Remote Desktop from my Mac. Maybe it's a
Remote Desktop problem in that case. Since Tim sees the problem
non-remotely, though, I think something deeper may be wrong -- maybe
with MrEd, or maybe just with Windows. If anyone has any further
information, please let me know.

Thanks,
Matthew
