It was not rude, it was the answer to his question:

5.72 is now using Microsoft's recommended way of getting the system font. It changed on purpose. Long discussion here viewtopic.php?f=4&t=73895
Is this written in a change log at anouncements?
How many members were involved in this discussion?
The topic is total different and I don't read all topics.
So I didn't know this. (And I think many others too)
GetStockObject() should not be used to get the font according to Microsoft.
And without registry hacks it is not possible that a user can change the default font which is used by a program.
Such a change can be done from 5.xx to 6.xx but not from 5.71 to 5.72 and with no 'official' information about this. (my opinion)
