Somehow the U+0080-U+00FF is render by the char* version of DrawString and
GetWidth. Since Mac 0080-00FF is in MacRoman but not ISO8859-1, it render Latin
0xe9 by using MacRoman 0xe9.
Kipp. I reassign this to you. I believe this may related to your nsTextFormater
work. In the past, we turn the multibyte flag on for any text >= 0x80. I don't
think that is still true now. Please take a look at that and reassign back to me
if it is not your fault.

there were a few cases where characters > 127 were leaking out without setting
the mHasMultibyte flag that were triggering painting bugs on macs...
