Oh, it does? On 10.5.2, is that?

In that case, Richard, I suggest you try clearing the font caches on  
your system. Leopard seems quite susceptible to font cache problems,  
from what I've seen reported. Tools like Linotype FontExplorer can do  
this, or other utilities (I'm sure they've been discussed on this  
list or the Mac OS X TeX list previously).
