[Therion] Problem with dots in symbols: map-connection is empty

Hello again and thank you for the quick reaction.

When i compile it with the newest build, the clay renders OK again.
However, now the altitude marks at the wall are designated with a small 
dot instead of the usual small line.

In the previous version, also the Questionmark symbol was missing the 
dot; that seems to be fixed now.

The default map-connection is still bugged here, tough.
