Re: [Devel] Patch needed to compile freetype-2.0.1 on Windows XP64 Beta 1

Hi,

Thanks for the time to look at 64 bit issues!

I had 64 bit compilation issues a fair amount of time ago, but I don't to cast
so many variables and/or assignments.  This was on a Tru64 UNIX box.

I'll take a closer look at this later today.  I have a favor to ask: can you
apply the same patches against the CVS code?  There were enough changes between
2.0.1 and 2.0.2 test (and CVS) that applying this patch *might* be difficult
(but do-able).
