Thanks for reporting this.  Some font file names in devpdf seem to be
switched around for no reason I can readily discern.  Can you try the
following patch, please?  (You may need to do a clean build, at least of
font/devpdf/; some of the Makefile dependencies don't seem entirely
correct for doing an incremental build after changing this file.)
