make Bitstream Vera fonts appear with hintstyle:hintfull

How can I make Bitstream Vera fonts appear with hintstyle:hintfull, while having all other fonts as hintstyle:hintslight? I'm using GNOME, I tried pasting this in my .fonts.conf:

 <match target="pattern" name="family">
        <test name="family" qual="any">
            <string>sans</string>
        </test>
        <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle">
            <const>hintfull</const>
        </edit>
 </match>

but doesn't give what I want.

Re: make Bitstream Vera fonts appear with hintstyle:hintfull

Strange, I have put Xft.hintstyle: hintslight in .Xresources and now epiphany is rendering all web content in hintslight but everything else is in hintfull. Does anyone have an idea about the precedence in which font hinting is applied?
