Additional observation:

If I refresh into FF latest/stable, the undesired line

<include ignore_missing="yes">/etc/fonts/conf.d</include>

gets written into ~/snap/firefox/current/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf.
I suppose the reason is that the snap from that channel is linked to
gnome-3-38-2004 which has not (yet) been updated in this respect.

Consequently the fix of this bug will reach all users only after:

1. the change of gnome-42-2204 has made it to latest/stable, and

2. the FF snap in latest/stable/ubuntu-23.04 is updated to a new
revision.
