It makes "BPG Glaho" the preferred font for "sans-serif", "BPG Chveulebrivi"
the preferred font for "serif" and "BPG Courier" the preferred font
for "monospace" when running in a Georgian locale. I.e.,
LC_CTYPE=ka_GE.UTF-8 xfd -fa monospace
should give you "BPG Courier".
This works only because I also changed ka.orth with the following
patch:
diff -ru fontconfig-2.2.99.20050218.orig/fc-lang/ka.orth fontconfig-2.2.99.20050218/fc-lang/ka.orth

Is it really OK to remove U+10f1 -U+10f6 from the requirement because
"BPG Chveulebrivi" doesn't have them or is "BGP Chveulebrivi"
incomplete?
