Confirmed.

Neither of these got installed.  Someone with better knowledge of the language
than I needs to check that whatever fonts are getting installed work.  If not,
we should file a bug against comps to make sure the right font is included in
the Romanian Support group.

Whoops, we need to regenerate the keymaps-* files for this to work right.  I'll
take care of that.
