I'd forgotten that the Encoding vector is used for keying into the font
cache.  Sigh.  Well, at least now it's not so mysterious.

On a related note, does anyone know what kinds of changes have been made
in recent versions of PostScript in order to handle fonts with more than
256 characters (NEC's new Kanji PostScript printer, for example)?
