OK, but that was the cause. Now, files under /etc are configuration files.
In my case, /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf was not present before
the upgrade (I had enabled bitmaps via dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
a few weeks ago). And after the upgrade, this file
/etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf reappeared, thus changing my
local configuration.
