And for the record... it doesn't "barf" with embedded fonts. It correctly notes the fact that the 'font-family" property doesn't exist for the CSS-level it was told to validate against (CSS 2.1). Unfortunate for validating ePubs with embedded fonts? Yes. Barf? No.
But regardless, the validator doesn't work properly. So it would be best not to include it since it can show errors that are not errors.
