The latest fontconfig from CVS works on Solaris 9 and Redhat Linux
7.1. However, there is something odd going on. I've placed snapshots
of the Mozilla startup for both these platforms at:
  ftp://ftp.thewrittenword.com/outgoing/fc
Before taking the screenshot, I did the following:
  $ rm -rf ~/.mozilla .fonts.cache-1
  $ mozilla-1.3.1

What's also odd is that after starting Mozilla for Solaris 9, I quit,
removed ~/.mozilla, kept .fonts.cache-1, and restarted it. I got the
following
  ftp://ftp.thewrittenword.com/outgoing/fc/mozilla-sol9.png.with.fonts-cache
Why is mozilla-sol9.png.with.fonts-cache different than
mozilla-sol9.png?

I've also uploaded snapshots of:
  mozilla-hpux11i.png		# Looks good
  mozilla-irix65.png		# Looks like Solaris 9
  mozilla-tru64-5.png

Why the odd font for IRIX 6.5 and Solaris 9? I also ran some Qt
programs linked against the new fontconfig and get the same font
behaviour.
