It wasn't the first module, it was any module, and the problem wasn't in the
module with the font setting, it was in modules after that module. I fixed
(patched) the problem by renaming the modules to start with z, so that there
are not any other modules after them. zBHS, zPeshitta, and zTamil The others
work ok without the font= setting. BHS works ok without font= setting, but
changes which font it is using for hebrew. (so does RNKJV - compare how
Genesis 2:5 looks when Genesis 2:5 is selected to when Genesis 2:6 is
selected.) Peshitta and Tamil show only boxes if I remove the font= setting.
