Mhmm, probably bad wording from my side. With `trusting' I mean that
the code controls `FT_New_Face'. For example, a plug-in provided by
the user might call `FT_New_Face', delegating the deallocation to the
program core. In this case the program core cannot trust that the
user module always does the right thing.
