I'm not sure I understand the "mess" part. Can you show an example of
what such "messing" produces in the simple recipe I suggested above?
Also, I'm guessing those vendors don't touch the Windows builds, do
they?

We could add that if there's a reason good enough. The advantage of
what I proposed is that it also detects the cases where HarfBuzz is
available, but for some reason not used.
