I ran it over all the fonts I had installed (most of the ones in main)
and almost all of them had some complaint. Some of the complaints
aren't necessarily a concern for Debian, but might be for upstream;
for example there is one about certain font features not working on
Windows.

Parsing the output is probably going to be the hard bit for this.
