Here is the version I’ve been applying in my local ebuild.

It works fine for me. I’ve tested the differences between the cairo and xft backends to pango-view and have configured fontconfig to prefer different hinting and filtering options for different font techs as well as for different font qualities. All w/o any issues.

I originally created the patch in git, and have just updated its offsets by applying it with patch and re-creating it with git-diff.

Attached here for review purposes.
