I've uploaded a work-around for this issue. It's not a true fix as we need to support custom fonts on the complex text code path, but it corrects the Scribd rendering. A real fix, as I see it, will fall into one of two categories:

1. Share the HarfBuzz complex text code with Chromium Linux.
2. Subclass enough of the Pango machinary that we can have it use custom fonts.

it's unclear to me right now which of those is better, but according to Behdad, we should be using HarfBuzz directly when it is ready.
