I trying dbxtool on build #136 of Solaris Next (was OpenSolaris), it was
discovered that the "monospaced" font in the window in the bottom left of
the tool, was displaying ugly text (poor spacing).

This was discussed on the dbx-interest list, and it was found that instead
of using /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.OpenSolaris.bfc
Java was now just using /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.bfc.

Specifically, (by running truss), it was found to be tring the following:

7877/14: access("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.5.11.properties", R_OK) Err#2 ENOENT
7877/14: access("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.5.11.bfc", R_OK) Err#2 ENOENT
7877/14: access("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.properties", R_OK) Err#2 ENOENT
7877/14: access("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.bfc", R_OK) = 0
7877/14: stat64("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fonts/fallback", 0xCD3FE980) Err#2 ENOENT
7877/14: open64("/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/fontconfig.bfc", O_RDONLY) = 50

Java is looking for "OpenSolaris" in the /etc/release file, to determine
whether it should be using .../fontconfig.OpenSolaris.bfc The /etc/release
file for build #136 now contains:

$ cat /etc/release
                       Solaris Next Development snv_136 X86
       Copyright 2010, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
                             Assembled 26 March 2010

There has been more discussion on the dbx-interest list, and I'll leave it
to Phil and David to determine the best solution going forward.
