Font config

Qt6-6.2.3-2.fc36 Problem: Qt6 applications seemingly do *not* use my fontconfig settings (which are used for everything else, including XFCE, GTK2/3/4 and Qt3/4/5 applications, and web browsers). I've used strace -e file and $HOME/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf is indeed being read but it's not seemingly used correctly. I do not see any error messages in console from Qt6 applications. I have a suspicion something in terms of fonts support in Qt6 has changed drastically but I haven't been able to find anything. Here's how Qt5 applications look like. Here's how Qt6 applications look like. I've filed a bug repor t because I haven't been able to find anything relevant.
