I worked on this at the Lille sprint, the reason the shift to DejaVu  
StrikeFonts hasn't been pushed (by me) is the BitBlt bug that Juan  
fixed recently, and which is not in published VMs yet.

Basically, due to overflows in the primitives when dealing with alpha  
values, when you drag a window in Pharo the text turns partly  
transparent, which is not very nice.
(Squeak doesn't cache the window being dragged in a Form, then bitblt  
that instead of redrawing the entire window, so it doesn't experience  
the same symptoms of the bug)

If you want to use it in Core, evaluate StrikeFont installDejaVu,  
before new VMs with the fix included become generally available I  
wouldn't recommend using it by default though.

Chers,
Henry
