[Devel] Handling broken Type1 full name fields

[Keith Packard]

I've a few fonts with broken names; the face name is common to
several faces while the full name is unique, it doesn't simply contain the 
face name followed by the style.  Here's what I did to make these fonts be 
identifiable by name:

+       else
+       {
+           root->family_name = face->type1.font_info.full_name;
+           root->style_name = "Regular";
+       }
       }
       else
       {

Because Xft matches fonts based on names, I really need accurate names, or 
at least unique ones.

Thoughts on whether this is a good idea?
