Hi Dominique,

Thanks for the fix.  Could you send me your updated backend_ps.py.  It
will be easiest for me to merge in your changes that way.  Is it slow
for you to load backend_ps.  If you have a lot of font files, I assume
it can take a while to parse them all.  It might be useful to cache
this information in the way that ttfquery does...
