This might work for Linux, but these fonts are not installed on any MacOSX version that I'm aware of. This might break Wine useage for Macs. It might also break it for Solaris as well.
It should only break in a way that makes it as bad as it currently is.
Macs should already have the proper fonts installed, but it might take some config changes to use them properly. Seems more like a packaging issue.
Along those lines, the hard drive space is cheap on this one. Seems like Wine packagers could just include the fonts and install them locally in c:\windows\fonts. More properly, we should probably try to detect a system installation of them since it'll probably exist and then fall back on installing them if it doesn't. Fonts are a pretty big usability issue, apps really don't behave properly without them.
