I'm not sure that these are problems. Anyone with a wiser advice?

I'm seeing these ones on my own system as well. Strange as I installed
the former version of these packages just yesterday....when I was
building the packages for adoption by the pkg-fonts team. So I'm 150%
sure that I never modified these hints files.

In our packages' preinst files, we're using always the same code:

rm_conffile() {
    local PKGNAME="$1"
    local CONFFILE="$2"
    [ -e "$CONFFILE" ] || return 0

    local md5sum="$(md5sum $CONFFILE | sed -e 's/ .*//')"
    local old_md5sum="$(dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' $PKGNAME | \
            sed -n -e "\' $CONFFILE ' { s/ obsolete$//; s/.* //; p }")"
    if [ "$md5sum" != "$old_md5sum" ]; then
        echo "Obsolete conffile $CONFFILE has been modified by you."
        echo "Saving as $CONFFILE.dpkg-bak ..."
        mv -f "$CONFFILE" "$CONFFILE".dpkg-bak
    else
        echo "Removing obsolete conffile $CONFFILE ..."
        rm -f "$CONFFILE"
    fi
}

... this code is apparently used by other packages (maintained outside
the pkg-fonts team) as well.

I wonder what's specific in the ttf-arphic-* packages that makes this
fail.
