Summary: Use upstream tarball and make modifications during the
                    build

Created an attachment (id=363657)
 --> (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=363657)
alternative approach that self-documents our changes

As described in rhbz#461617 we have a modified sazanami-fonts tarball that
differs from the original. Apparently to change the 0x7E6B glyph in the Gothic
and Mincho fonts according to rhbz##196433

Attached is a suggestion to use the original tarball and modify it during the
build to swap in the two desired replacement glyphs using the ttx tool from
fontutils.

I don't have strong feelings about this one way or the other, but I feel this
might be a rather "neater" and self-documenting mechanism to solving the
original problem ?

Thanks. to make the process clearer next time, given that I need to modify the
font again, I just need to:

1. modify the font on fontforge say
2. convert the font to ttx and diff both the original ttx and the modified ttx
and pick up only the glyph updated
3. apply the patch at the build time as you attached

Should this process work?
