font.eclass has some racy code in pkg_postinst() that changes permissions of already-installed files. I want to remove that to avoid the race. This is the only package that installs fonts with permissions other than 0644, so override that in src_install().
The claim in font.eclass is that fontconfig segfaults if fonts are unreadable, but that claim dates to 2007 (bug #187774). Additionally, 0444 is readable, but who knows. Let's just keep things working how they have been since 2007.
