Turns out I was being an idiot - supplying a font path that doesn't 
include the final /truetype/ suffix results in a coredump, not the 
friendliest failure mode, but I should have noticed.

Interestingly (maybe?), 'though the Qt5 configure detected FontConfig 
support, apps still fail to run without being supplied an explicit 
QT_QPA_FONTDIR pointing at system fonts. I assumed FontConfig would 
handle that transparently. It's one of a couple of reasons I'm curious 
to see other successful configure and cmake option sets (the other being 
odd OpenGL inconsistent detection) ... but this is all off PyQt topic.
