If F18 really does have STIX 1.1, then it's not going to work since the layout of the fonts has changed so much. That's going to require a great deal of effort. Can you successfully run the test suite with this change? That should catch any glyph mismatch problems. Is there a way to have the package depend on 1.0 version of the fonts until matplotlib has a chance to update its tables?
