<pre>This might be tricky. Clients of fontconfig currently only expect
FC_FILE/FC_INDEX. We would need to update them all to check for the FC_FT_FACE
as well...
Taking FT_Face might not be a good idea. Taking memory and creating a FT_FACE
every time works.
Alternatively, we can use modern Linux APIs to assign to a piece of memory a
file name. That might be the least portable but most useful.</pre>
