Thanks for the report. That's the kind of regression that we like to
discover before release, hence I encourage you to install packages that we
submit for test on debian-lts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :-)

That said, this problem also affects
openjdk-6-jre-headless 6b33-1.13.5-2~deb7u1 in wheezy-security. OpenJDK
is special in that the package maintainer does support building
backports out of the current package in sid. So this is in fact
a regression in the packaging... hence I'm including the Open JDK
packaging team in the discussion (and Matthias Klose in particular
since he added the patch which changed this file:
see fontconfig-dejavu.patch in
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openjdk/openjdk/openjdk6/revision/569).

Matthias, are the changes problematic enough to warrant pushing an
immediate update or can it wait until the next upstream release?
(See below for the changes)

Can you update the packaging to exclude
debian/patches/fontconfig-dejavu.diff on squeeze and wheezy (and old
Ubuntu releases as well I guess) ?

I guess this should do it:
