 I just tested a build of fonts/fontconfig in a chroot running
 7.99.5/amd64 built from sources checked out a few days ago, and the
 package compiled with no problems.  It seems that my base system was
 subtly borked for the past year, and is so no longer.  That makes this
 bug a red herring, if you'll forgive the mixed metaphor.  As far as I'm
 concerned it can be closed.  Thanks for taking the time to help and
 teach.
