In my opinion it is a clear Palm OS bug (Or whoever wrote Clock application;
I found it installed on the Tungsten as part of the system.) The Clock
application is able to geopardize other tasks in the described way as well.
I thought that somebody from Palm could react...

What we did was simply to change the font ID. I know, it isn't a nice
solution, but it works. You just have to select/guess the ID different from
the ID used in Clock.
