Are they?  This seems excessive.  We have never distributed fonts
with Emacs before, and we've already doubled its size for the next
major release by including leim and the elisp docs in the main
distribution.

It is not sufficient to distribute the fonts with Emacs anyway, they
have to be installed in the font-path, and I'm not sure we can find a
way to do that on all systems (the font server may be on another
machine for example).
