On OS X, you have to choose whether you want to use the CoreText text stack,
or the Fontconfig+FreeType+HarfBuzz font stack. For now, use the native one.
In the future I may make it possible to use HarfBuzz in Pango without
Fontconfig+FreeType, and at that point we may prefer it over CoreText shaper.
