Note that this also fixes a bug with FcFontList() where previously
it was NOT checking whether the config is up-to-date. May want to
keep the old behavior and document that ScanInterval is essentially
unused internally (FcFontSetList uses it, but we can remove that
too).
Description of FcStrDirname is absent in the official documentation of
fontconfig-2.5.92. At the same time the source documentation contains
description of the function.
The problem is a consequence of a misprint in the format of the source
documentation file 'fcstring.fncs'. The finish mark of description of the
previous function is absent.
David Turner has modified FreeType to be able to render sub-pixel decimated
glyphs using different methods of filtering. Fontconfig needs new
configurables to support selecting these new filtering options. A patch
follows that would correspond to one available for Cairo in bug 10301.
This reverts commit b607922909.

Xft still uses the macros that are in fcprivate.h. Document those macros and
include fcprivate.h in the published header files.
FcStrCopyFilename constructs a canonical path for any argument, including
expanding leading ~ and editing '.' and '..' elements out of the resulting
path.
FcConfigUptoDate only checks whether files have been modified since the
configuration was created. Any changes to the configuration through the API
since then are not considered.
The Delicious family includes one named Delicious Heavy, a bold variant
which is unfortunately marked as having normal weight. Because the family
name is 'Delicious', fontconfig accidentally selects this font instead of
the normal weight variant. The fix here rewrites the scanned data by running
the scanned pattern through a new substitution sequence tagged with
<match target=scan>; a sample for the Delicious family is included to
demonstrate how it works (and fix Delicious at the same time).
Also added was a new match predicate -- the 'decorative' predicate which is
automatically detected in fonts by searching style names for key decorative
phrases like SmallCaps, Shadow, Embosed and Antiqua. Suggestions for
additional decorative key words are welcome. This should have little effect
on font matching except when two fonts share the same characteristics except
for this value.
Limited FC_DEBUG documentation (just shows values and vague idea of what
they're related to). Also document \ escape syntax for font names, including
how family name and values have different escape requirements.
