This bug is present in all versions of L4D2, other source games I tested in Russian just keep the console font Lucida Console as usual (tested Portal 3420, 5135, Steampipe, Portal 2, L4D1 1.0 and newest). SerGGun9 said it used to happen with Russian in CSGO back in 2017-2018, but don't quite know for sure. Game is trying to make Tahoma the console font but it does not render properly.

Doesn't happen on native Linux L4D2 (font remains the default Linux dev console font). I can't find anything in the game files that is responsible for this, but who knows?
