Are you asking if there are any way to do something in XML instead of "ln -s"?
Here is to allow only /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf and
reject all of fonts under /usr/share/fonts.
<fontconfig>
<selectfont>
<rejectfont><glob>/usr/share/fonts/*</glob></rejectfont>
<acceptfont>
<glob>/usr/share/fonts/dejavu</glob>
<glob>/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf</glob>
</acceptfont>
</selectfont>
</fontconfig>
Adding a directory too is the trick. fontconfig checks a directory
first then filenames in it so just adding a filename without dir
fails.
