font rendering suddenly changed

I have a problem with the rendering of aquafont.  I've been using the font for quite awhile, and suddenly the rendering inside of urxvt changed.  See the following screenshots: Original and Current

The spacing in particular has changed.  I am running current/extra/community, fully up to date.  I recently installed gnomebaker, and with it, a bunch of gnome deps.  After rebooting is when the problem started.  I've since removed gnomebaker and all the deps, rebooted, but the problem persists.  I don't think gnomebaker has anything to do with this, I'm just trying to give all info that might be relevant.

Other fonts seem to be unaffected.  I am using aquafont in conky and it seems fine there too.

I have no idea where to go from here.  Any help is appreciated.  Let me know if you need additional info.  Thanks.

Re: font rendering suddenly changed

Alright, I've figured out what is causing this:  setting

export LC_ALL="en_US.iso-8859-1"

in ~/.bashrc
Commenting this line out and reverting to UTF-8 returns the font spacing to the correct size.  The reason I added this line was to fix a font issue with perldoc where some characters were not available.  For example, try "perldoc -f print"

Is it possible to use perldoc in a UTF-8 environment?
