  The code 124 (0x7C, |) is rendered as a broken line in two
fonts, instead of a continuous line.  Some keyboards show a
"broken bar" on one of theirs keys, other show a (continuous)
"vertical line".

Applied, as I think you're right and don't know any policy to not change
existing fonts. But it would be better if you use git to create your
patches.
