Seems like Bug 98729 is still not fixed?

[Comment 2 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) 2005-08-09 11:20:26 UTC]

Could you check whether adding 'truetype' to your USE flags fixes the problem
for 1.1.9.8?

[Comment 3 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) 2005-08-21 12:55:30 UTC]

Closing, please reopen if it's not fixed in 1.1.9.9.
