BTW, JDK 7 doesn't actually read fontconfig.properties any more (the automatic configuration via libfontconfig is preferred). The fontconfig.properties installed in /etc/java-7-openjdk already has the proper fonts and paths for Ubuntu but it's unused!

If you make a symlink with a more specific name like this:

    sudo ln -s /etc/java-7-openjdk/fontconfig.properties /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/fontconfig.Ubuntu.properties

then it does get read. So that's an easy way to work around this bug. (Same for Oracle JDK 7, with paths adjusted appropriately.)
