Recently I've found a better fix. Set default hintstyle to "CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT"(which is new), and in the function _cairo_ft_options_merge, change

     if (options->base.hint_style == CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT)
         options->base.hint_style = other->base.hint_style;
to
     if (other->base.hint_style != CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT)
         options->base.hint_style = other->base.hint_style;

This should give fair result, i.e., only if hintstyle is specified with fontconfig would the value configured with gnome-settings-daemon be overriden.
