Hmmm, no it should match the font named "x-large CSSTest FamilyName
Funky" (csstest-familyname-funkyB.ttf), not "CSSTest FamilyName" or
"CSSTest Fallback".

Those are all valid font family names which match names in the
underlying test fonts. This test is merely trying to trip up
implementations that are not careful about how code is shared between
the font shorthand and the font-family property.
