no, not there but before I even start thinking about adding that we need
to investigate all places as i'm pretty sure that on the mac it's
different (somehow 'standard' in practice is never 'standard') and
there's also the order to consider, one, more, and in what order then
(personally i always keep font sthat i use in tex in the tex tree if
only to make sure that after an os update i still have them/the same ones)
