I can certainly do so, but in which unit is this method?

I wrote a small test program that has a synmemo and a memo
It sets the fonts of  both the memo and synmemo the same
and then queries their names etc and writes them in the editcontrols
below (see attachments)

In r18956 when setting the font (via fontdialog) to Courier New 10
point normal you see that the fonts look exactly the same in synmemo
and memo (normal_couriernew.png).
In r19705 they look very different indeed (bug_couriernew.png).

So at least it looks like the synmemo thinks it's font is courier new...

I tested the compiled programs under XP and they behaved normally (and
absolutely the same): the courier new font looks OK and the same in
synmemo and memo.

So we have a win9x specific bug?
(Delphi with a tsynmemo and a tmemo behaves just fine on my win9x system)
