Hmm... ought to be possible to make it work, assuming the printer font
has that glyph. I didn't realise it was broken. From Ales's comments
about the the pango + cairo branch and printing, thought he implied
gschem could print the various characters it currently understands.

 It may just be a matter of mapping that character to the right
postscript glyph name, or as Gabriel suggested, trying a different (e.g.
UTF-8) encoding for text within the postscript.
