That sounds familar, but...

I drop this into fonts/conf.d/, and it helps:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<selectfont>
<rejectfont>
<pattern>
<patelt name="scalable"><bool>false</bool></patelt>
</pattern>
</rejectfont>
</selectfont>
</fontconfig>
I have no idea where I got that from (looks like a late-night fix, git log
is not that helpful here), and it really looks somewhat overly broad, but
I can avoid breaking dependencies with that. Should find a real fix...
Gruss,
Christoph
