Bug Description

Binary package hint: emacs-snapshot

Using updated Emacs Snapshot in Hardy (emacs-snapshot (1:20080228-1)), which seems to have a bug with regard to XFT display of fonts. Upstream already has a bug report on the issue: http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.emacs.bug/browse_frm/thread/210555fa7dbef296/33c5e44aa0bb582f?tvc=1&fwc=1

This fixes this bug by simply adding "roman" to the list of types, and mapping it to normal the way it should be.
