XftFontMatch does display-specific font configuration (commit528241a). Nice. Unfortunately, when we switched from FcFontMatch, we also stopped storing the post-Fc{Config,Default}Substitute FcPattern for future lookups. The result is that if a glyph isn't found in the primary font, secondary font lookups use the original FcPattern, not the configured one. If you have custom fontconfig rules (like me), this can be disappointing. I basically just copied the guts out of XftFontMatch[1] and saved the intermediate configured FcPattern. Could be related to the bug that inspired commit4242027. [1]: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXft/tree/src/xftfont.c
