2.Set allow to use other fonts
3.Set sans-serif font Arial

Expected Results:

I run Debian Woody + uptodate Gnome 2 from Sid. Mozilla is from Sid version
1.2.1, this problem is also with Phoenix 0.5.
Xft is enabled (mozilla-xft is installed), X version is 4.2.1, libfreetype
version is 2.1.3, fontconfig and libfontconfig1 versions are 2.1. 
Mozilla theme - modern, antialiased fonts on Gnome are enabled, font
configuration is handled with fonts.conf, default installed version.

Other applications doesn't have these problems, all fonts are rendered correctly.

Upgraded my Gnome, and everythings fine, maybe it was some issue with pango, or
something else.
