FWIW, in XEmacs we simply exposed the whole fontconfig API to Lisp, except for stuff like memory management which are done by Lisp automatically. I haven't heard of this particular problem, but if we see it and fontconfig APIs are insufficient (which IMO would be considered a bug in fontconfig or Xft), I think we would probably do the same thing for Xft APIs we need. I would think that hintstyle is probably accessible via fontconfig.
