It turns out that FontBook was reporting an issue with the Georgia font. I somehow fixed it within FontBook and now it's all good. However, I have 25 other minor font problems according to FontBook. Now I just have to figure out how to fix them. Thanks for the input guys. It turns out that FontBook was reporting an issue with the Georgia font.

Additionally, are you still using a font manager to, like FontExplorer X or Suitcase? (FontExplorer X hasn't received an upgrade to 10.5, but I believe Suitcase has) - this can be a source of funky font caching too.

Use Onyx to delete your caches - or specifically the font caches (although doing all of them isn't a bad thing). Sometimes, like webpage caches, the font caches get in a muddle. When you delete the (non-web) caches you should restart your Mac. It will take a longer time to start up as it has to rebuild a lot of caches but in future you should be back to normal speed. ...that font does make your webpages look a lot more cheerful though ;) More likely to be a dodgy font cache.

The easy thing is to replace them with known-good versions from your backups or install DVDs One of the three fonts specified for the css STRONG property, Georgia, “Times New Roman” and Times, is at fault, primarily the BOLD version of one of those three fonts.
