I doubt it.  I'd rather work on bringing the math font stuff up to
fontinst 1.8 and see what needs to be done about those hacks.  
OTOH, I might consider integrating parts of the old documentation 
into the new fontinst.dtx as the \OnlyDescription part.

Based on all his question about details, I'm really confused as to
what kind of doc he's going to write.  Let him answer this himself.

Cheers, Ulrik.
