I'm trying to remember what this does; my recollection is that this
comparison allows for exact matches among any of the requested languages
to be equivalent to an exact match for the first language; note that
scores are increased by one each time the match is further along in the
pattern.

This means that a pattern of the form 'en,ja' will exactly match a 'ja'
font.

I don't exactly recall the details though. I do know that locales on
essentially all other systems are of a similar form though, so any
issues you're seeing on Solaris should be present on Linux, BSD and
other systems.
