OSX JDK1.4 font problems

I'd always noticed the font IDEA used for menus, text etc looked a bit funny - I guess someone at Intellij being too clever for their own good and using a non-standard font. They look even funnier now that I've installed the latest JDK1.4 patch.

Every piece of text, menu item, dialog button is rendered as a little box - you know the thing that fonts that can't support a particular foreign character set.

Please fix this ASAP as the tool is unusable !

This has been discussed at length already. A simple search for "OSX 1.4.1 font square" turned up the following links:
