The functionality tests ok in Windows the way it is implemented. What
you are asking for is not the way it actually works. Having tested a
few applications, they all seem to handle the E_PENDING ok. In Windows
the cache contains font info to speed up the uniscribe processing so
many apps only pass the psc and not the HDC. There is a rule that once
you have an script_cache the caller can't change the font. If he does
it is his fault and he can fix it. In our case we currently only seek
conformance with Windows.
