disable-crbug1004354.patch According to test/Makefile.am test-crbug1004254 should not be enabled
since it requires downloading fonts (and thus does not add it to the
TESTS variable), yet run-test.sh will explicitly run the test anyway
if it was built.... which then fails (because we don't have and can't
run curl).

make-byteReverse-hidden.patch [PATCH] Make byteReverse hidden
When building on big-endian systems, the byteReverse symbol becomes an
exported symbol of the library. This seems like it's not intended,
specially since there are no symbol on little-endian systems
(where byteReverse is just an empty define).

src/fcmd5.h already includes src/fcint.h which has a FcPrivate define to
hide symbols (when possible) that is already widely used, so use that.
(fontconfig/fcprivate.h defines FC_ATTRIBUTE_VISIBILITY_HIDDEN but it
seems basically unused.)

On debian package builds (on big-endian archs) this extra unexpected
symbol gets caught:
