Hi Michael,

your #728444 hack is extremely ugly, and it is unclear how bad the 
performance penalty for this hack is.

I am myself an xpdf user affected by this bug, but it seems clear that 
there are libpoppler issues that have to be sorted out in xpdf, instead 
of ugly hacks like this (that could also pup up again any day when 
another library starts using pthreads).

It does also not make much sense to push an ugly temporary hack for one 
issue that is not even in fontconfig itself, while two other RC bugs 
that are actually in fontconfig (#728598, #714279) stay unfixed.

       "Only a promise," Lao Er said.
