Comment (by pulkomandy):

 The key here is the "arguments". If you use the minimal build profile (as
 is the case with jam -q haiku.image, for example), the DejaVu font is not
 installed. But if you use the "alpha" or "nightly" profiles, it is.

 You can use {{{AddHaikuImagePackages dejavu ;}}} to add the font to your
 image, and it will be used by default.

 In any case, Terminal should not end up using Bitstream Charter, it should
 pick a monospace font as long as one is available.
