David, what shall I do?  Shall I fix the Type 1 and Speedo backends to
be Markus-compliant?  (Pro: make core fonts consistent with Xft fonts,
and core Type 1 fonts consistent with both bitmap and TrueType fonts.
Con: making XFree86 inconsistent with the SI; in addition, I feel like
annoying Markus.)

MK> We now have clear and unambiguous standards in that question,

Er?  What ``clear and unambiguous standards''?  The Unicode Standard
merely mentions that U+0027 is an ambiguous character.
