Try server build (Mac/Win):

Caveats:

- Windows: Postscript-style OTF fonts (i.e. CFF fonts) don't load
- Mac: Every now and then font load will fail and fallback font will show,
investigating
- same-site origin restriction enabled by default (site A can't refer to fonts
on site B)
- restriction can be disabled with
gfx.downloadable_fonts.same-site-origin.enabled in about:config
- with restriction disabled, A List Apart article examples will load correctly:

 http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssatten

- use of access control headers to allow cross-site usage not yet implemented
- Linux: not yet working, see bug 449356
- for now, fonts are stored in mozfontxxx.ttf files in system temp directory.
These may not get cleaned up if a crash occurs.
- unicode-range not yet implemented

If you run into problems, please note them in bug 441473 along with clear steps
on how to reproduce.
