Since 1.8.0 doesn't work for me (see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76749 ) I tried 1.6.0 which also fails, as follows: Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

what freetype do you use ? what does 'readelf -a /usr/lib/libfreetype.so | grep FT_Get_PS_Font' give ? and what sort of odd things do you do to your system ? I cannot see this and the other thing happening on a clean sys...
