>Organization:
Virtual Estates, Inc.
>Environment:

	I use the  -gemini-* family of KOI8-U fonts. They  include all of the
	KOI8-R  characters and a few of the Ukrainian ones (the alphabets are
	ALMOST the same).

	I  don't  want to  load  both  Gemini  and  Cronyx families  into  my
	X-server, for obvious reasons.

>Description:

	GTk insists on -cronyx-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-r
	for  Russian  texts.   You  can  full  it,  by  creating   a  set  of
	Gemini-to-Cronyx aliases, but that is  a workaround and those aliases
	waste the server's memory too.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:

	I suggest adding the following  patch to the GTk's patches directory,
	until the GTk developers put into their tree:
