+       * src/fcmatch.c: (FcFontSetSort):
+       I changed FcFontSetSort to respect the generic aliases better
+       in the face of language matching.
+       
+       What I did was to ammend the strict sort order used by FcFontSort so
+       that it 'satisfies' the language specified in the pattern by locating
+       the best matching font supporting each pattern language and then
+       ignores language in the remaining fonts for purposes of matching.
+
+       So, when asking for 'sans:lang=en', you'll get an English font first,
+       and then the remaining fonts sorted with respect to the 'sans' alias
+       alone -- pushing Kochi fonts ahead of other English-supporting Han fonts.
