aster $ diff  ./font/util/bdftruncate.c_backup ./font/util/bdftruncate.c

That progresses neatly and then blows up moments later with :

Hrmmm .. I guess these CFLAGS are not going to work : 

aster $ echo $CFLAGS 
-m64 -g -malign-double -std=iso9899:199409 -pedantic-errors -mno-mmx -mno-sse -fexceptions -fpic -fvisibility=default -mtune=opteron -march=opteron -m128bit-long-double -mpc80 -Wl,-rpath=/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/gcc4/lib64 -Wl,-q
aster $ 

Is there a README somewhere that points to a build instruction sheet or INSTALL doc or similar ?
