Make core font system 
1. optional installed by default in FC n
2. optional not installed by default in FC n+1
3. pushed to Fedora Extras in FC n+2

3-release roadmap. Surely that's not too ambitious ? The few apps that
don't use fontconfig today won't in 10 years unless someone provides
more incentives to change.

And I wouldn't mind so much if fixed and friends were not en endless
source of X startup crashes
