OK, I have resolved this. Hearing "it's just you" was the key.
It turns out I had a Monaco font suitcase from the year 2000 in /
Library/Fonts, in addition to the Leopard Monaco.dfont file in /
System/Library/Fonts. Once I disabled the ancient one, this problem
went away.
Time to hunt for other old fonts to get rid of, I suspect!

Some investigation has revealed that whenever I try to display an "L"
followed by a slash, it gets composed into a weird slashed-L
character.
That weird character is U+0142 LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH STROKE
according to the unicode character tables ...
Is it just me?
Yup, it's just you. No, but seriously, I cannot reproduce it. What
character encoding are you using? (Under the Advanced tab in the
Terminal Settings window.) Does the problem persist with different
encodings? And what is the output of the command "locale"? And
"printenv | grep ^LC_" ?
(Incidentally, while we are getting increasingly off topic, Terminal
likes to set LANG=UTF-8, which is not right. I need to learn where to
file bug reports ...)
