When I try starting the current development version of Octave with
FC_DEBUG=1 and execute the commands
octave:1> backend ('fltk')
octave:2> title ("foobar", "fontname", "surelythisisnotafontname")
I see the following output, which apparently shows that Bitstream Vera
Sans was selected as the default font even though I specified a
fontname that is not valid. What do you see?
FC_DEBUG=1
FC_DEBUG=1
