I haven't explored it. My patch (and patch set) was meant to be a quick 
fix to make a very broken setting a little less broken; introducing 
fontconfig, while probably being a more proper solution, would require 
much more work. I think it is better to get there more gradually, 
including this patch set as it is now (which already fixes some games, 
like Lumberjack's Dynasty) and leaving more complex stuff for the future.

Thanks, Giovanni.
