Well, I tried wording things just to ask if people had been noticing this instead of asking anyone to test anything for me since the issue was manifesting itself with utilities bundled by poppler and I didn’t find any other reports about it.

Anyway, the problem ended up being mac specific with the way fontconfig caches /System/Library/Fonts and reports are finally showing up:
