Two SVG text tests fail locally

svg/W3C-SVG-1.1/text-fonts-01-t.svg
svg/text/text-fonts-01-t.svg

I assume that it's due to font fallback.

The diff:
-        RenderSVGText {text} at (20,240) size 286x27 contains 1 chunk(s)
-          RenderSVGInlineText {#text} at (0,-20) size 286x27
+        RenderSVGText {text} at (20,240) size 286x24 contains 1 chunk(s)
+          RenderSVGInlineText {#text} at (0,-19) size 286x24
             chunk 1 text run 1 at (20.00,240.00) startOffset 0 endOffset 19 width 286.00: "A mono (iW) face \x{753B}\x{50CF}"


The offending SVG snippet:
			<text font-family="'Lucida Console', 'Courier New', Courier, Monaco, 'MS Gothic', Osaka-Mono, monospace" x="20" y="240">A mono (iW) face &#30011;&#20687;</text>

As far as I can tell my font list is:

Lucida Console: NO
Courier New: YES
Courier: YES
Monaco: YES
MS Gothic: YES
Osaka-Mono: NO (but I do have Osaka, "Regular" and "Regular-Mono")

As to the individual characters in that test, I'm not sure which fonts they are present in or not.

Anyone know what assortment of fonts could be causing the problems here?  And/or why the buildbots aren't seeing problems?

This is a standard Google Mac Desktop.  I also have MS Office 2008 installed (which is probably the problem).

I tried disabling MS Gothic, MS PGothic and Osaka and was not able to get the test to pass.

Oh!  Turns out that I do have Lucida Console.  Disabling that font makes the tests pass on my system.

We do have some specific handling for 'Lucida Console' throughout our code when I search across using 'searchfox.org' with keyword 'Lucida'.

I didn't try to run these tests locally to see, if we hit this issue now or not but I'll CC some Text experts (i.e., Myles) to get his input.
