I was a little wrong here. Those OpenType feature methods are
deprecated. The supported way to set them is through PangoAttributes
using the PANGO_ATTR_FONT_FEATURES attribute type
(https://developer.gnome.org/pango/unstable/pango-Text-Attributes.html#PangoAttrType).
This was added in 1.38 which was released in 2015 September
(https://github.com/GNOME/pango/releases/tag/1.38.0). This is rather
new (newer than my operating system includes - 1.36.3). So the minimum
version would need to be _much_ newer than 1.18.
