[Devel] FIX? [was: Non-integer bbox for T1 font?]

[Tom Kacvinsky]

Attached is patch fro t1load.c that places 16.16 fixed numbers (16
bits of integer, 16 bits of fraction) into the font bbox array.  To
get the integer part in your code, just shift right 16 bits.  There
will be some rounding errors (rounding up/down when it should be vice
versa), but i imagine you can get around that...

Let me know if that fixes your problem.  I would appreciate comments
from others as well.
