Another possibility is that your xserver is selecting a font with totally
busticated font metrics. I encountered one font that had a squirrely value
for the font's 'max left bounding box' value that did very evil things when
the font was used in a Tk/Tcl program.
xlsfonts -lll your-font-here | more
and start looking for odd bounding box or other values...
