Well, it's not a problem but an expected change, which is mentioned in
FreeType's `CHANGES' file:

  - PCF family names are made more `colourful'; they now include the
    foundry and information whether they contain wide characters.  For
    example, you no longer get `Fixed' but rather `Sony Fixed' or
    `Misc Fixed Wide'.
