AFAIK are the keysyms unknown to the Xserver. Please check if those 
entries are found in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB or copy the XKeysymDB
from your solaris box to the windows machine.

As a workaround copy the font directory which the program wants to set to
your windows machine. X_SetFontPath should then find them. (keep the
path the same)
