Is the patch supposed to allow Emacs to handle these fonts, or is it
just the protection against assertion violations?  If the latter,
isn't it better to teach the font driver to handle these fonts
correctly?

AFAIU, your patch basically will cause Emacs to reject such fonts and
not use them, which is tantamount to telling users to configure Emacs
to ignore them via, say, face-ignored-fonts.  Is that right, or am I
missing something?

Thanks.
