Dear Ken: Thanks for the notice!Btw., recently I experienced xpdf failing to start due to rebasement errors similar to what a few people reported here months ago, and the xpdf version from your repository worked for me. So I'd be happy to see your xpdf compilation in the standard cygwin distribution.

I'm not overly optimistic that anything will happen to this bug report at all. But, anyway, thank you for having reported!I had some private correspondence with Akira Kakuto about my bug report, and he said it isn't a bug. The problem is simply that xetex has very limited support for type1 fonts, and the solution is to remove them from the fonts that fontconfig knows about, as you've done. So I'll probably make this change the next time I update texlive. Ken
