In fact it is much more funny than this, because all expert fonts are
completely messed up.

I suspect that this is NOT a fontconfig problem, but a user app problem,
as the do not evaluate ALL properties returned by the fontconfig
library. I had a long discussion on this with the OOo guys, see here:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=42835
where examples for fonts, and weird things are described (including
screenshots).
