--- Comment #2 from Behdad Esfahbod <freedesktop at behdad.org> ---
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.
