           Summary: RFE: Xorg default build should run with |BuildType1| set
                    to |NO|
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: cvs
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: roland.mainz at nrubsig.org


RFE: Xorg default build should be compiled with |BuildType1| set to |NO|.
The xc/lib/font/Type1/ code is unmaintained since a very long time and no longer
needed for PFA/PFB font handling since the FreeType font code can do the same
with much better results. 
This will also get rid of the very annoying "Beziers this big not yet
supported"-crashers.

Note: This does NOT mean that CID fonts won't work anymore. Only the PFA/PFB
font handling gets moved over from xc/lib/font/Type1/ to xc/lib/font/FreeType/,
CID fonts will still work...
