--- Comment #1 from Vincent Danen <vdanen at redhat.com> 2010-07-09 20:28:20 EDT ---
Provided we never enable truetype bytecode support (doubtful since it's
patented) this won't affect any version of freetype we ship.

Users that have rebuilt freetype with truetype bytecode support enabled will
probably want to patch this and rebuild again to get the fix, or revert to the
(supported) version of freetype as provided (with truetype bytecode support
disabled).
