My answer was wrong. Starting from XXE v3.8 (support of MathML), this
restriction:

---
font-family is expected to contain serif, sans-serif or monospace.
Example: "|font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;|".
---

has been removed. I've tested that with font-family:"Charis SIL"; (and
also with font-family:"Comic Sans MS"; to have a more striking effect).

The bug is that we forgot to document this enhancement. This will be
done in next release.
