[webkit-qt] QtWebKit + Qt 4.8.5 embedded + fonts

Hello,
I am running QtWebkit 2.3.2 + Qt 4.8.5 embedded on a MIPS system.
I'm having issues with fonts handling. Basically QtWebkit says I have only 1 font installed (using this: http://flippingtypical.com/).
So I can't see any unicode character, arabic or whatever characters. (for example on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_and_HTML)
I've done a quick test on Qt by calling QFontDatabase::families() and it returns the correct number of fonts installed. I have fontconfig version 2.6.0.
So I guess the problem is in QtWebkit.
Digging around in the config files I found this:
# We need fontconfig to set up the test fonts for DumpRenderTree and WebKitTestRunner.
haveQt(5) {
config_fontconfig:!mac {
DEFINES += HAVE_FONTCONFIG=1
}
} else {
# Qt 4
unix:!mac:!embedded {
DEFINES += HAVE_FONTCONFIG=1
}
}
Does it mean it won't use fontconfig for Qt embedded systems ? If so, is there a particular reason for it ?
What is the correct way to tell QtWebkit where to look for fonts or to retrieve them from Qt ?
Thanks,
Massimo
