Well, actually it's not alias specific but can see same behavior when
having multiple strings in<test>.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33644#c12 and

understand what happened there.
I've read the comments now, and it sounds rather difficult to get it
right. (I typically work around such situations by duplicating rules in
the config, i. e. effectively appending/prepending my edits several
times during config substitution.)
I think that most users, when they use multiple families in the upper
part of <alias>, think of something like:
"Now if I use <accept>, then append after the last occuring
value out of the ones I just specified"
and
"If I use <prefer>, then prepend before the first occuring
value out of the ones I specified"
I. e. maybe something like having FcConfigMatchValueList() return first
_and_ last match in the actual value list and use the latter for append
edits.
But I don't really know. I'm fine with the current implementation and
it's easy to avoid such configuration issues anyway.
