Uh, do you mind if I say "yuck!"? Is this platform dependency really
necessary? Can't we add the relevant attributes with appropriate
values to the null font instance for mswindows?
/* The X11 code doesn't have to do this explicitly, because there we trust
the font instance to know whether it's actually proportional or not,
and we use the zero width that is stored in the monospace null font
instance. */
We don’t trust the Windows fonts to know if they’re proportional or not. So,
no.
(Yes, I know this whole file is already platform-dependent, but it
would be nice to reuse as many patterns as possible.)
