I suggest font_fc_config function for install fontconfig config file.
It works with >=fontconfig-2.4.

seems reasonable.

But is it a good idea to enable all config files by default ?

I implemented this and then found this bug report. ;)

The new variable is FONT_CONF, and is a space-delimited of fontconfig files that will be installed into /etc/fonts/conf.avail.  Symlinking them to conf.d is up to the ebuild or (preferably) user.
