This patch is very good for me. I am a Chinese user. But in Linux, I can't use chinese font well. Including bold font...etc...can't display in Linux. But firefly's patch solve these problems. Each time I install linux, I have to patch them and recompiler. It's not a convient thing for end user. As a result, I holpe fontconfig can accept this patch... please...
