Bug description:
  Binary package hint: fontconfig

  First noticed in IntelliJ IDEA (java IDE): All italic text in editor
  is non-monospace in ubuntu 10.04. It has always been monospace in all
  previous versions of ubuntu.

  Can be reproduced in JEdit too:
  1. Open/Create any.sh file
  2. Type in two lines:
  _miii
  #miii
  3. Go to "Utilities-> Quick Settings -> Edit syntax style of token under caret" and select italic (so comments will be shown italic).

  Result: Width of two lines is different, non-monospace font is used.
  Expected: Comments are italic but still monospace.
