I believe you might be mistaken. The original patch (https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=57542&action=review) was intended to solve precisely the problem you are describing. It does no matching, it uses FcFontList so that it won't return a positive if X is invalid. I wrote that patch because Scribd was using the pattern you describe: they had a @font-face { font-family: "Blah"; src: local(â), url(http://scribd.com/somefont.ttf); }, and our cache always said 'here it is' for "â".

After landing the patch that makes the listing less strict I tried scribd and made sure â was not getting a hit, and the web fonts were still being downloaded.

Let's see that test case, though, because it may help us figure out what is broken with scribd, or if I'm the one who's mistaken =)
