Hi Neil,

Thanks for noticing this.  It's a rather complicated problem involving
the font tree, as you pointed out.

Changing font-defaults to

  #(define font-defaults
     '((font-family . gonville) (font-encoding . fetaBraces)))

only loads "gonville-brace", and not "gonville".  So we need to
override both encodings.  I'm not entirely sure how to do that, but
I'll look at it shortly.
