I think libXft2 was the only font rendering library that didn't change
between those two builds.
>From the X side we upgraded freetype from 2.3.7 to 2.3.9,
and fontconfig from 2.5.0 to 2.7.1. GNOME integrated their
upgrade from 2.26 to 2.28beta, which would have included new
revs of pango & gtk. libXft2 is the only one I can think of
that didn't change, but it's due for a new release soon too.
There were some fontconfig issues in a few locales found and
fixed for 125:
6868776 fonts.conf customizations don't have any effect
6869348 installing lang-support-all hijacks existing default fonts for some
locales
