Hi Steve:
Yes, I got a build by modifying Xrender.h. However, I'm having a problem,
but I suspect that has to do with my .Xdefaults? I just recently installed
Xft so I don't really know anything about it.

Oh, that was dumb. I didn't have /usr/share/fonts pointing to anything.
However, what is it supposed to point to? If I hide my .Xdefaults and
I link /usr/share/fonts to /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts,
then it doesn't die immediately, but it starts consuming massive amounts
of memory, about 1G in 30 seconds, so I have to kill it. Hmm... Under
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts I have:
100dpi/ F3/ TTbitmaps/ Type3/ misc/
75dpi/ F3bitmaps/ TrueType/ Xt+/
CSL/ Speedo/ Type1/ encodings/
Isn't that what it is looking for? I guess this shows my inexperience
with this new-fangled font technology.
