Even if 2.11.94 is a development release, the answer you got from a fontconfig developer (<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/94505#c5>) is striking. The alternative, i.e. patching the "ancient" 2.11.1 with multiple selected commits, is also risky business.

As regards <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/94427>, I'm not able to tell how big problem it is in practice. Wouldn't that one happen with your proposed patches?

I'll talk to someone on IRC (#ubuntu-desktop) tomorrow, and get their view.
