first patch to put in files/

allows for japanese font names (some japanese fonts do not have latin font
names)

adds a more comprehensive font substitution scheme to reduce appearance of
empty squares on cjk pages

second patch

greatly improves japanese printing support as well as embedding of ttc fonts,
otf fonts.. make break behaviour with xft1 though (is this a problem? looks
like we already require virtual/xft)

arghh, sorry, the second attachment i meant "may break behaviour" not "make 
break.."
