Description of problem:
fc-match "times roman" results in a Sans font



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dejavu-fonts-2.26-2.fc10.noarch
fontconfig-2.6.0-3.fc10.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. fc-match "times roman"
2.
3.

Actual results:
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"

Expected results:
DejaVuSerif.ttf: "DejaVu Serif" "Book"

Additional info:
Perhaps this should be fixed in fontconfig as well?  Clearly (to the user) 
any font name beginning with "times" should return a Serif font.

eg:
    fc-match times
    fc-match "times roman"
    fc-match "times new roman"
    fc-match "times-roman"
    fc-match "times-new-roman"
