This is a bug in xrdp.
FreeRDP is correctly reporting that it does not do glyphs.
xrdp then does not care that the client does not support glyphs and
sends them anyway.
The way the xrdp login screen is designed, it can't do text without
this order.  I'd have to use FreeType or something to change this.

This is just like the other reported issue.

Another fix would be to add glyph support to FreeRDP.
I have a patch somewhere to add glyph support to Windows FreeRDP, let
me see if I can find it.
