I planned to add `get_metrics' to the SFNT_Interface and start
implmenting the `get_advances' interface of the driver, but I was soon
distracted to clean SFNT_Inteface up.  Apparently, it has caused more
troubles than I expected.  I guess I better leave ttpload.c alone and
stop the process here.  Let's hope that there is no (or not too much)
more problems :-)

I'll start fixing some bugs in the FT_OPTIMIE_MEMORY'ed code I found
during the clean up.  As for the `get_advances', how do you think about
it, or, do many applications benefit from it?

I thought pango can, at least for large scripts where there are many
cache misses.  But now I find that it would, if not impossible, take too
many efforts for a, say, 2% gain.
