Description of problem:
Some letters in the Cyrillic block are shown with wrong glyphs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
XFree86-4.3.0-42

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Unicode Character Map Accessory
2. Select the Cyrillic Block
3. Inspect the glyphs for serif, sans and monospace

Actual results:
Some glyphs are wrong

Expected results:
All glyphs should be correct

Additional info:

serif:

040B: The glyph is squeezed and looks like a strange mixture between a
capital and a small letter. The glyph should look more like the glyph
shown for 04BA, but with the top bar added.

04A8, 04A9: The loop is missing.

04BB: The glyph should look more like 045B, but without the bar.

04BC, 04BD: The little hook on the left is missing.

04BE, 04BF: The little hook on the left and the descender are missing.

sans and monospace:

0402: The glyph should not connect at the bottom (compare to the glyph
shown on the serif font).

040B, 0452, 045B: These glyphs should not look like T's.

0494, 0495: The middle hook is missing.

0496, 0497, 0498, 0499, 049A, 049B: The descender is missing.

049C, 049D: The vertical stroke is missing (sans only).

04A0, 04A1: The top stroke to the left is missing.

04A2, 04A3: The descender is missing.

04A4, 04A5: The top stroke to the right is missing (monospace only).

04A6, 04A7: The middle hook is missing.

04A8, 04A9: The loop is missing.

04AA, 04AB, 04AC, 04AD: The descender is missing.

04AF: The stem is missing (sans only).

04B0: The stroke is missing (sans only).

04B1: The stem and the stroke are missing (sans only).

04B2, 04B3: The descender is missing.

04B4, 04B5: The top bar is missing.

04B6, 04B7: The descender is missing.

04B8, 04B9: The vertical stroke is missing (sans only).

04BB: This should look more like 045B (after that glyph has been
corrected), but without the bar.

04BC, 04BD: The little hook on the left is missing. For monospace the
base letter should be changed from a c shape to an e shape.

04BE, 04BF: The little hook on the left and the descender are missing.
For monospace the base letter should be changed from a c shape to an e
shape.

04C3, 04C4: The hook is missing.

04C7, 04C8: The hook is missing.

04CB, 04CC: The left descender is missing.

04E0, 04E1: The top of the glyph should be flat.
