Hi Adam Vincent Hennebert is already working with the FOray project to integrate its font subsystem with FOP so we will have ToUnicode CMaps. It's nice that you share your patch with everyone but it won't be applied to the old, frozen maintenance branch anymore.
Anyway, I'd rather you shared with us the details of your experience with 0.90alpha1 because that's where the fun is. If we knew what the problems with the DocBook stylesheets are, then we could fix them and let you migrate.
