"Suitcase" messing with fonts chosen in nib files?

I think I found a Cocoa bug, but I'm not quite sure what's going on. I have been getting reports from people that have extra fonts installed, and sometimes when using the "Suitcase" font management tool, that certain UI elements in my apps (where I have Helvetica chosen as the display font, such as in some NSTableViews and NSBrowser) garble the fonts, causing the text to look garbled (generally ASCII text, but characters scrambled to other characters).

Screenshot here: <http://makeashorterlink.com/?M1E8610F2>

Has anybody else encountered this phenomonen? Maybe somebody with familiarity with AppKit would know how the font is actually selected at runtime when one is specified in the nib -- for instance, does it match fonts by name, or some sort of internal ID, or what?
