Hello Werner,
Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I have seen that page, it's where I read the patch for pango that
dealt with a similiar issue. The only file patched in the inkscape tree
is src/libnrtype/FontInstance.cpp; the code I'm trying to fix is in
src/extension/internal/ps.cpp (and is the only place in the inkscape
source that FT_MODULE_CLASS remains).

Thank you, I probably wouldn't have found this function without your
help; I'll take a look at it.
Regards,
Richard
