Behdad is right.  Don't test stuff that FreeType doesn't need for
itself.  In other words, only test data that FreeType itself is going
to access.  For example, if we need the 12th byte of structure `foo',
then we should check whether we can do that, together with some sanity
tests to find out whether this value in `foo' is reasonable.
