Re: [Bug] Unusual wide Chinese fonts on w32 (again)

[Sun Yijiang]

I made a cvs update and a w32 build, the bug seems gone.  I'm
using create-fontset-from-ascii-font and chinese characters with
font-lock on, everything seems OK.

I have made a change that fixes this bug. There is still a problem if
create-fontset-from-ascii-font is used with a font with double-width
characters and font-lock is enabled. I think the problem is
limited to Windows because on X always uses separate fonts for
different encodings, but it appears that FONT_WIDTH,
FONT_AVERAGE_WIDTH and the actual character metrics are still not used
in a consistent way throughout the code.
