This problem clearly has something to do with the difference between
patterns presented by KDE and those presented by Gnome, but fontconfig
should be able to get the right answer in both cases unless the KDE
application is sending something wrong to the library. Let's try to get
that information out of the application:
$ FC_DEBUG=5 kedit
should show both the original pattern presented by the application and the
edits applied by the configuration before matching occurs. That'll tell
whether KDE is doing something unexpected or whether the Debian fontconfig
package has some 'improvements' which generate the wrong result in this
case.
