Hi, some comments:
 * when i apply your patch the code doesn't compile

/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlFonts.cc: In member function ‘GooString* 
HtmlFontAccu::CSStyle(int, int)’:                                                                                
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlFonts.cc:359: error: ‘jstr’ was not 
declared in this scope

After fixing that, the code does not compile again

/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlOutputDev.cc: In member function ‘void 
HtmlPage::dumpAsXML(FILE*, int)’:                                                                                  
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlOutputDev.cc:753: error: no matching 
function for call to ‘HtmlFontAccu::getCSStyle(int&, GooString*&)’
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlFonts.h:93: note: candidates are: 
GooString* HtmlFontAccu::getCSStyle(int, int, GooString*)
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlOutputDev.cc: In member function ‘void 
HtmlPage::dumpComplex(FILE*, int)’:
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlOutputDev.cc:837: error: no matching 
function for call to ‘HtmlFontAccu::getCSStyle(int&, GooString*&)’
/home/tsdgeos/devel/poppler/utils/HtmlFonts.h:93: note: candidates are: 
GooString* HtmlFontAccu::getCSStyle(int, int, GooString*)


So i'd appreciate a patch that builds, after that we can start speaking about 
the functionality/code quailty, etc.
