I don't see this (running a fresh install of Feisty beta), and I agree it sounds like a font problem.
I do get the "Missing charsets" warning, though - no practical consequences so far.
Do you have old cruft in your .emacs or .xemacs/ perhaps? Or in .Xdefaults or similar (xrdb -q)? Try removing and restarting?

Try with '-fn fixed' (or another font)?
