New description:

 When click on BONUS in the Syberia menu, the menu screen is missing
 umlauts. MEN instead of MENÜ.

 The font Bulle Normal (`BULLN___.TTF`) included in Syberia 2 is not
 compatible with all German umlauts, so Comic Relief Normal was used
 instead for Syberia 1.
 The font `BULLN___.TTF` available in Syberia 1 is a renamed Comic Relief
 Normal (`ComicRelief.ttf`).

 == Workaround
 In Syberia 2 (German and other languages with Bulle font problems) ScummVM
 should use `ComicRelief.ttf` instead of `BULLN___.TTF` (default in Syberia
 1). But `ComicRelief.ttf` is not an uppercase font.

 For my test I renamed the font Komika Text Kaps Normal (`KOMTXTK_.ttf`) to
 `BULLN___.TTF` and it works.
