Actually, I am about to feel really stupid now. ;-) It seems the REAL
cause for the problem had nothing to do with freetype or the change to
load from memory. The real error seems to be that the font itself was
checked out from CVS as a non-binary file (and thus was incorrect in
windows, but correct in Unix). After copying the font over, it
works. You have no idea how frustrating this has been and what a DUH!
experience it is finding out the real problem.
