I will commit this latest patch after merging to master and after a clean rebuild works. Took me a while to get all the lib deps correct but subtitles now work.

fast way to update fontconfig patch
./makelibs.sh fontconfig ./mythbuild.sh
Havent tried this with David's temp fontconfig patch in subtitlescreen.cpp. This may need to be disabled. Not sure.
Beware, on the first subtitle, there is a 10 second pause while fontconfig initialises (guess)
But subtitles then work for the duration of the video with the correct font(s).
As always YMMV

Committed fontconfig update. Now will only wait the first time subtitles are displayed where it takes 10-20sec to build the fontconfig cache. After this every new use is fast.
To update without a full rebuild,
rm -rf libs64/fontconfig* ./makelibs.sh fontconfig ./mythbuild.sh
Note The workaround has not yet been removed but I suspect is innoccuous. Not tested though.
