[Fonts]font renderer for .pfa/.pfb registered more than once

[Mike A. Harris]

When xfs starts up with CVS XFree.. the following warnings are 
logged:

Nov 11 01:30:49 jik xfs: Warning: font renderer for ".pfa" 
registered more than
once 
Nov 11 01:30:49 jik xfs: Warning: font renderer for ".pfb" 
registered more than
once

Is this something to consider a bug?

That's expected behaviour with current CVS, which is not internally
consistent.  Both the freetype and the type1 backends register for
PostScript fonts; whichever you get depends on the order they register.

Could you please try again after applying

Assuming it works today, it will cause the freetype backend to get
Type 1 fonts, and the type1 backend to get CFF fonts.

Thanks,

Juliusz
