Bug 1891877 Comment 3 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

googling for `D050000L fantasy`, I found a handful of reports for this issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1909382
https://github.com/ArtifexSoftware/urw-base35-fonts/issues/27

I guess a fix was merged over a year ago here:
https://github.com/ArtifexSoftware/urw-base35-fonts/pull/46

...though that hasn't made it into an official release on that repo yet, or to distros.

We might want to add some sort of local workaround, since this is pretty catastrophic when it happens. (I just ran into this on a page that had `fantasy` as a fallback generic which briefly rendered before a web-font, and it was a pretty shocking experience to see a screen full of dingbats for a second before the real text rendered. :) )

We might want to add some sort of local workaround, since this is pretty catastrophic when it happens, and it might (?) affect many linux users by-default.
