Bug Description

These two characters are not present in Ubuntu Mono.

Because of bug 932958, they are substituted from a different font. In a terminal this causes characters to overlap.

Facundo, unfortunately with the Ubuntu One shutdown those links are broken. Do you still have the screenshots anywhere?
