TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING. This fixes the return value of

I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
- Various integer overflows have been fixed.
- PFB fonts with MacOS resource fork weren't handled correctly on
non-MacOS platforms.
- The PCF font loarder has been seriously hardened against malformed
font files.
II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- the unpatented hinter is now part of the default build of the
library, and we added code to automatically support "tricky"
fonts that need it.
what this means is that FreeType should "just work" with certain
Asian fonts, like MingLiu, which cannot properly load without a
bytecode interpreter, but fortunately do not use any of the
patented bytecode opcodes.
Note that the API didn't change, so you can still force
unpatented hinting with a special parameter to FT_Open_Face
as well.
if you're an embedded systems developer, you might want to
*disable* the feature to save code space by undefining
TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING in ftoption.h.
- LCD-optimized rendering is now disabled in all default builds
of the library, mainly due to patent reasons. For more information
see:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype/2006-09/msg00064.html
a new configuration macro FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING has
been introduced in ftoption.h; manually define it in this file
if you want to re-enable the feature.
the change only affects the implementation, not the FreeType API.
This means that clients don't need to be modified, because the
library still generates LCD decimated bitmaps, but with the added
constraint that R=G=B on each triplet.
- Some computation bugs in the TrueType bytecode interpreter were found,
which allow us to get rid of very subtle and rare differences we had
with the Windows renderer.
III. MISCELLANEOUS
- TrueType glyph loading is now about 25% faster.
- the anti-aliased rasterizer has been optimized and is now 15% to 25%
percent faster than the previous one, depending on content
- the Type 1 loader has been improved; as an example, it now skips
over top-level dictionaries properly

include/freetype/internal/ftobjs.h, include/freetype/internal/tttypes.h,

changed the name of TT_CONFIG_OPTION_COMPILE_UNPATENTED_HINTING to
the simpler TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING
removed the macro TT_CONFIG_OPTION_FORCE_UNPATENTED_HINTING. Instead,
the same effect can be used by setting a debug-hook with
FT_DEBUG_HOOK_UNPATENTED_HINTING globally with FT_Set_Debug_Hook()
. In all makefiles `/' is used as the path separator. The
conversion to the real path separators is done as late as
possible using $(subst ...).
. $(HOSTSEP) no longer exists. Now, $(SEP) gives the path separator
for the operating system, and the new $(COMPILER_SEP) the path
separator for the compiler tools.
. $(BUILD) has been renamed to $(BUILD_DIR). In general, all
directory variables end with `_DIR'. The variants ending in `_'
(like `BASE_' have been removed).
The following ChangeLog entries only describe changes which are
not related to the redesign.
* builds/beos/beos-def.mk (BUILD_DIR): Fix typo.
* builds/compiler/watcom.mk (LINK_LIBRARY): Fix linker call to avoid
overlong arguments as suggested by J. Ali Harlow
<ali@avrc.city.ac.uk>.

`devel' subdirectory.

* builds/unix/configure.ac, builds/unic/configure: Updated.
