That leads to a build failure [1],
Ow! that's scary ... oh, I see what you mean ("that" == patch, not
"that" == change to regexp :-). You had me going for a second.
because fontconfig.el does a (require 'font-mgr) that is now
unsatisfiable. How do I handle that?
Mmm. Try just wrapping it:
(ignore-errors (require 'font-mgr)) ; FIXME!
In a --without-xft build you should get some compile warnings that
xft-* functions are not known to be defined, and at runtime if
something falls through to an xft-* function you'll get an undefined
function error for some fc-whatever. Presumably that's an error
anyway if Xft isn't linked, but it might be marginally more confusing.
If that doesn't work, make the change you proposed and flag it
;; #### stephen doesn't like this but it's up to him to do better!
