Really good catch, Davide!

In fontforge, there is a :
Elements > Typo. Features > Remove all features
                            Remove feature(s)...
			    Remove unused nested

When "Removing all features" from FreeSerif.ttf and removing all Arabic
glyphs from it, I get a working debian-installer in Arabic.

Finally, with http://adn.diwi.org/tmp/d-i/fonts/FreeSerif.ttf only in
the freefont dir, it comes to work ! \o/

So it may be necessary to do that on all the other fonts that overlap
Arabic.

Well, last thing, I did not get the "Remove feature(s)..." thing working
for just removing the arab tag (I am missing an argument so fontforge
segfaults).
