Screenshot for Font GUI in Hindi (hi_IN) locale

Description of problem:

All languages using Lohit as default font, instead of latin characters, boxes
appear on the FontGUI. Attached screenshot for Hindi (hi_IN) and Malayalam
(ml_IN)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.4.3-2.fc12

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Login to any indic locale using Lohit as the default font eg: Hindi, Marathi,
Bengali-India etc
2. Go to System->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts
3. Check the font displayed, all boxes appear instead of English alphabets

Actual results:
Reproducing above steps, you see only boxes.

Expected results:
Reproducing above steps, latin characters must appear.

Additional info:
As Malayalam uses smc-meera-fonts as default font, this issue is not present in
ml locale. Screenshot attached
