Ok, I've figured it out.
It's happening due to the -renderer-.
To speed up drawing on older, slower OSX systems, I'm switching to
Quickdraw rendering in my OSX build, and apparently Quickdraw can't
draw Chinese characters.
Oh yes, quite true. Automatic font substitution (which is how the OS
goes and grabs glyphs for those Chinese characters from some other
font, when the one you've specified doesn't have them) is a feature
of Quartz font rendering.
Quartz does. If I rebuild and flip my internal switch to allow Quartz
rendering, everything looks the way it should.
Just out of curiosity, is this a known "artifact" of drawing through
Quickdraw in OSX, and is this the expected behavior?
Yep. Though it ought to work if the font you specify has the glyphs,
I would think. But I think you're better off rendering with Quartz
anyway.
(Also, you might want to put something in the RB documentation warning
about this, if it's not a fixable issue for the future)
That's a sensible idea.
Best,
