It's not just DejaVu. It's quite a number of them.

The second problem is the original one. For some (unknown to me)
reason, defoma generates wrong FontInfo.plist for some fonts in
/var/lib/defoma/gnustep-nfont.d/Fonts/*.nfont/. It might be a bug in
our gnustep-nfont.defoma script, or a bug in defoma. When you switch
a range in Charmap, it tries to find the appropriate font to display
the characters, and does an extensive font lookup, which fails with
[...]
The filenames for the fonts are simply generated wrong, and so it
takes quite some time to traverse through all of them. The cairo
backend accesses the fonts directly, so this bug cannot be reproduced
there.
This is probably a bug in the font package itself. The DejaVu package
occasionally has incorrect font hints. As well, when font filenames
change, it does not seem to un-register the old filename, and register
the new filename. So defoma ends up pointing to the old file.
