Just confirmed on 8.10 as well. It seems things have gotten slightly
better.
I wrote a simple ~/.fonts.conf:
<fontconfig>
<match target="font">
<test name="family"><string>DejaVu Sans Mono</string></test>
<edit name="hintstyle"><const>hintfull</const></edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
fc-match -v "DejaVu Sans Mono" will always return me a result that is
consistent with my fonts.conf.
In Intrepid, the above setting *seems* to work as long as you never
actually run the gnome appearance panel and manually change the hint
settings. Once you do that, then all the settings get overridden again
(even if I restart apps [i've been testing with gedit])

some ~/.fonts.conf settings do no override desktop-wide gnome settings (hinting
style)
