I finally got a compile of this done.  I did it on a suse 7.3 i386 box
using their .spec file edited to add the freetype2 patch and the new
freetype backend.  I then tested with the new backend and my already
installed version of their 4.2.0 binary release.

Unfortunately, this is a no-go.  Although xlsfonts(1x) works
perfectly, any attempt to actually render a scalable font via the new
backend dies with a segfault.

The log shows very little of value.

I'll try again w/o the cross verisoning.  And also against HEAD if I
can figure out a way to do so w/o killing the current install.  (I do
not have a scratch box at hand to test on....)
