I see no such behavior. The text size appears the same with or without
fontconfig (that is very small with -subfont-autoscale 0 because the
default -subfont-osd-scale is small, but increasing it works OK).

If you see different behavior, are you perhaps using a bitmap font
without configuring -subfont-osd-scale? Maybe the difference is that
with fontconfig the font actually gets scaled to the size you requested?
Though if it wasn't actually getting scaled before then I wonder why you
needed to set the autoscale option either (what difference did it make)?

The commit only changed the default value of the option. There should be
no need to modify the code. Just set the option if you want another
value.
