 Running debxo-0.1, I install abiword using aptitude.  Running, I note that
 Times New Roman, Times, and other commonly used fonts have serious
 rendering problems.  This can be resolved by using a different font.  I
 was advised by uwog in #abiword on irc.gimp.org to use a patch to the
 default abiword template file (
 abiword-2.6.4.orig/user/wp/templates/normal.awt) to set the font to DejaVu
 Serif.  I have attached this patch, but am unsure of how to push it
 upstream in a way that will enable debxo users to use it.
