Thanks for the patch - I've gone ahead and pushed to git master, so it
should be included with the upcoming font-util 1.2.0 release once Jeremy
pushes his change (since he said he was updating the comments I've not
pushed the current patch from him).

I'm not planning on cutting new tarballs of every font package right away,
having had enough fun doing that this week already, so you'll be autoreconf'ing
for a bit, unless someone else wants to volunteer to do that.

(Obviously we'll be doing bh-ttf to fix my fontconfig path screwup there,
 but that's just one of the 35 font packages.)
