Comment (by athrxx):

 This is caused by text16.cpp, line 599.
 The Japanese text lines in the PQ2 F1-help box start with normal space ' '
 characters, but the rest is SJIS. We only use the first character in a
 line to determine whether the whole line is SJIS or ASCII. So, here the
 engine thinks that these lines are ASCII because of the leading space. Do
 you want me to make a fix?
