I don't see a reason to exclude a module.

George has already answered that.  Some non-interactive programs from
the `ft2demos' suite might be used for testing FreeType's basic
functionality, this is, whether compiling and linking has worked
successfully.  Another possibility to use the example1.c file from the
tutorial which, if used with a small bitmap font, produces results
which are fully predictable -- of course, this tests only a small
fraction of FreeType's code.

It is not planned to remove any functionality.  David is currently
rewriting the cache code, so we have some replacement of code.

The main visible difference will be that the internal header files no
longer will be installed.
