from bad news: I'm hestitant to bury myself in mcclim for another few weeks to work on clx to adjust to the alternative behavior (at least now)

mcclim calls MCCLIM-TRUETYPE:AUTOCONFIGURE-FONTS at load time. this has two problems: 1) building software including mcclim requires some aspects of a graphical environment (see https://jenkins-cse.bob.ci.cit-ec.net/job/build-generator-wip-language-server-ci-docker-build-generator-experiments/6/console for symptoms of missing those) 2) if i'm not mistaken, when dumping an image, the configuration computed for the machine building the

(right now it is (design-ink design x y) and returns ink at specific coordinates
