I think it would make sense for us to be conservative then and disable the
check for FontConfig under iOS and Android.  Could you make these mods and
generate a PR for them so I can make sure that the next 3.6.4 rc builds on
these out of the box.

This close to a release I don't want to add any further variables to the
mix of things that could cause end user problems so issues like FontConfig
I'd prefer to avoid creating a snow ball of changes each of which may have
it's won conseqences like the FontConfig one has...

Cheers,
Robert.
