Thanks for reporting.

The root cause was a long-standing issue which happens when one gives
NULL pattern to FcPatternGet*(). this should be fixed in git.

This is because those fonts doesn't contain SFNT-based bitmap font.
hence 10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf wasn't applied.

Though calling FcConfigSubstitute with FcPattern returned by
FcFontMatch is meaningless. the result has already been done that
process.
