Do the fonts for the math editor change depending on architecture and platform? Windows and linux (debian + scientific linux + redhat), pentium II, pentium III, pentium IV, pentium MMX AMD XP. Hell the PPC linux will probably have the same problem too just like Solaris.
The standard setup is in my opinion wrong. And even if I change the type so that this %nu vs v similarity is gone, who will tell me I will not run into the same problem with another symbol when I've picked another font? I personally dislike the %nu symbol. As this is the special one it should differ clearly from most standard v's. The base font chosen for the math editor -whichever that could be, try wingdings if you like- should just not have any symbols interfering with the standard alphabetic font characters in the math editor. Most of the characters in the font which is now chosen are quite nice to read so my suggestion would be to just alter a few and maybe rename the font to "Times-NR-Math" or so if you like to stick to the standard names.
