What is the attitude towards those patch?

added an option to choose whether to use gamma correction. In current situation, Chinese characters are too bright.
* fontconfig-2.2.3-alllang-20041114.patch
Some asian fonts include fonts more than one language family, i.e. ttc fonts
* fontconfig-2.2.3-include_CJK_charmaps-20041114.patch
Extra big5 table.
