What happens if I propose Fedora to simply exclude those bytecode

FWIW, this problem was the main reason that under my maintenance, we didn't
enable the bytecode interpreter.
I think the default should remain as not using the bytecode, and use
fontconfig config to whitelist fonts. Or use fontconfig to blacklist...
To be honest, I don't fully agree with upstream. Autohinter and bytecode
*can* be used together. The results won't be optimal, but much better than
the current output. Maybe someone can bring up the multi-script font use case
with upstream and convince them to reconsider.
