I thought that Owen has answered that already: Pango intentionally
uses internal functions of FreeType for various reasons; you thus
*can't* upgrade FreeType without recompiling Pango itself.

See above. Programs which only depend on FreeType (and which don't
use internal functions) will work OK.

I fully agree. Owen, any suggestion? Tim is the first one who
complains about this particular problem... To be more specific, he is
the first who complains on the FreeType list about this problem :-)
