Hi,

i'm curious why was the freetype2 library recently included into
source.development tree? afaik, freetype2 is not used by any
TeX-related apps: e.g. ttf2pk uses freetype1, and xpdf library does
not need freetype2 either - it's only used for rendering truetype
fonts, which is not used by pdftex.

Best,
v.
