🚀 go-pugleaf

  I'm currently compiling X11R5 and I'd like to include the Type 1
font renderer included in the contrib.  After following the (skimpy)
directions, it compiled with one error: 1 reference each was made to
nonexistent members of the FontPtr struct by the Type1OpenScalable()
function in t1funcs.c.  Since they were the only references, I
commented them out ( *DANGER* *DANGER* ) and it compiles okay.

 However, now when I test it, every so often, while referencing a Type
1 font (usually -adobe-courier-medium-r-*) it just dies.  If the
server is doing the rendering, then it dies totally.  The font server
will report bus error as it dies.  I haven't tracked down the problem,
partly from a lack of time, and partly because I have a feeling that
this may have been corrected in a later release.  But if so, where?  I
just snarfed this stuff from
export.lcs.mit.edu:/pub/R5/contrib/contrib-*,  Isn't that the
authoritive place for X stuff?  Any help would be appreciated greatly,
as the alternative is to rip the Type 1 stuff back out.

Thanks!
