Something is different about the Russian upper case R (Р, decimal 1056, hex 
0420, you can copy it from Character Map in Windows). That's why Robert 
misbehaves, and so do Ruanda, Rodesia, and even USSR.

Seriously, when the word СССР is clicked on any of the first three letters, and 
I use one of the hacks we've been discussing, the first three letters of the 
word are displayed (but not the fourth one, the R). When I click the fourth 
letter (the Russian R) a rectangle is displayed instead of the word--a 
placeholder we often see for a character that is missing in the font. It is not 
a font problem--the word is displayed fine in the original field where I click 
it, and the same font is used in all fields.
 
Curiouser and curiouser...
