    Bug 46169 - Pointer error in FcConfigGlobMatch
    Fix possibly accessing the invalid memory and a crash in the
    worst case
    when the glob string is longer than the string.
    makealias: handle missing funcs better
    When adding new functions, if the actual definition doesn't match the
    header (say due to a typo), the regeneration of the internal headers
    get confused and output bad cpp logic.  This causes gcc to barf due
    to mismatched #ifdef/#endif.  Which is a pain to figure out due to
    the sheer voulme of generated code.
    So tweak the makealias script to detect this case and error out.
    While we're here, improve the cpp output a bit to indent, include
    comments, and merge similar ifdef blocks.
    FcObjectValidType: tweak -1 checking
    Newer gcc doesn't like when you switch on an enum and use a value
    that isn't declared:
    fcname.c: In function 'FcObjectValidType':
    fcname.c:299:2: warning: case value '4294967295'
	not in enumerated type 'FcType' [-Wswitch]
    So tweak the logic to avoid this warning.
    fix build warnings when using --with-arch
    Latest configure code will setup FC_ARCHITECTURE directly rather than
    going through ARCHITECTURE, so update fcarch.h accordingly.
    fc-{list,match}: constify format string
    We don't free this string anywhere, so mark it const to avoid gcc
    warnings
    and possible bugs in the future (if people did try freeing it).
    fc-list.c: In function 'main':
    fc-list.c:161:16: warning: pointer targets in assignment
	differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
    fc-match.c: In function 'main':
    fc-match.c:201:13: warning: pointer targets in assignment
	differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
    fc-match.c:203:13: warning: pointer targets in assignment
	differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
    FcName{,Get}Constant: constify string input
    These funcs don't modify the incoming string, so add const markings.
    This is the "right thing", shouldn't change the ABI, and fixes some
    gcc warnings:
    fccfg.c: In function 'FcConfigEvaluate':
    fccfg.c:916:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'IA__FcNameConstant'
	discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled
	by default]
    fcalias.h:253:34: note: expected 'FcChar8 *' but
	argument is of type 'const FcChar8 *'
    fcxml.c: In function 'FcTypecheckExpr':
    fcxml.c:604:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'IA__FcNameGetConstant'
	discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled
	by default]
    fcalias.h:251:37: note: expected 'FcChar8 *' but
	argument is of type 'const FcChar8 *'
    fc-cat: fix pointer warning
    Add a cast to avoid a gcc warning:
    fc-cat.c: In function 'cache_print_set':
    fc-cat.c:230:2: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2
	of 'FcPatternFormat' differ in signedness [-Wpointer-sign]
    ../fontconfig/fontconfig.h:860:1: note:
	expected 'const FcChar8 *' but argument is of type 'char *'
    FcStat: change to FcChar8 for first arg
    This shouldn't affect the ABI, makes FcStat more like the rest of the
    fontconfig API, and fixes warnings where we pass FcChar8* pointers in
    to this func from other places.
    delete unused variables
    Newer gcc is better at detecting set-but-unused variables.
    FcStrPlus: optimize a little
    We've already calculated the lengths of these strings, so re-use those
    values to avoid having to rescan the strings multiple times.
    Bug 44826 - <alias> must contain only a single <family>

    Fix stupid bug in FcFontSort()
    I broke FcFontSort() language handling at the end of 2008 with this
    commit: c7641f28
    G-d knows how many of the lang-matching bugs in bugzilla will be
    fixed by this changed...
    I'm really sorry, everyone!
    Switch fc-cat to use FcPatternFormat()
    Added the a builtin "fccat" to FcPatternFormat().
    Switch fc-match to use FcPatternFormat()
    Fix small bug in FcPatternFormat that was letting element-default to
    consume the convertor sequence.
    Bug 26718 - "fc-match sans file" doesn't work
    - Do not throw away FC_FILE in FcNameUnparse
    - Update the builtin "fclist" format to remove FC_FILE properly
    instead
    - Switch fc-list to use FcPatternFormat()
    Note that I had previously broken fc-list and it was not showing the
    file name anymore.	No one noticed that it seems!  Now fixed.
    Bug 36577 - Updating cache with no-bitmaps disables bitmap fonts...
    Do not remove blacklisted fonts during cache generation.  We already
    apply the blacklist when reading the caches.  The idea always has been
    that the config should not affect caches built, although that design
    was tarnished with the introduction of target="scan" configurations.
    [.gitignore] Update
    Bug 35587 - Add padding to make valgrind and glibc not hate each other
    Fix warning
    Always define FcStat as a function
    Such that first arg is const char *.  We also need to make more
    changes
    in that function as part of some other bug.
    More doc typo fixes
    Mark constant strings as constant
    Fixes a few compiler warnings in fcxml.c and makes it clear that they
    should not be freed.

    add some documents
    Add editing langset feature.
    The syntax to add any langset to the langset table looks like:
    <match target="scan">
	<test name="family">
	    <string>Buggy Sans</string>
	</test>
	<edit name="lang" mode="assign">
	    <plus>
		<name>lang</name>
		<langset>
		    <string>zh-cn</string>
		    <string>zh-tw</string>
		</langset>
	    </plus>
	</edit>
    </match>
    To remove any langset from the langset table:
    <match target="scan">
	<test name="family">
	    <string>Buggy Sans</string>
	</test>
	<edit name="lang" mode="assign">
	    <minus>
		<name>lang</name>
		<langset>
		    <string>ja</string>
		</langset>
	    </minus>
	</edit>
    </match>
    Add the range support in blank element
    add some document for range and charset.
    Add charset editing feature.
    The syntax to add any characters to the charset table looks like:
    <match target="scan">
	<test name="family">
	    <string>Buggy Sans</string>
	</test>
	<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
	    <plus>
		<name>charset</name>
		<charset>
		    <int>0x3220</int>	 <!-- PARENTHESIZED IDEOGRAPH
		    ONE -->
		</charset>
	    </plus>
	</edit>
    </match>
    To remove any characters from the charset table:
    <match target="scan">
	<test name="family">
	    <string>Buggy Sans</string>
	</test>
	<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
	    <minus>
		<name>charset</name>
		<charset>
		    <int>0x06CC</int>	 <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
		    <int>0x06D2</int>	 <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE -->
		    <int>0x06D3</int>	 <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE
		    WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
		</charset>
	    </minus>
	</edit>
    </match>
    You could also use the range element for convenience:
    ...
		<charset>
		    <int>0x06CC</int>	 <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
		    <range>
			<int>0x06D2</int>    <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH
			BARREE -->
			<int>0x06D3</int>    <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH
			BARREE WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
		    </range>
		</charset>

    be 3 and the encoding ID should be 1. When building a symbol
    font for Windows, the platform ID should be 3 and the encoding
    ID should be 0."
    We were ignoring the SYMBOL_CS entry before.  It's UTF-16/UCS-2
    like the UNICODE_CS.
    Also, always use UTF-16BE instead of UCS-2BE.  The conversion
    was doing UTF-16BE anyway.
