I found a strange case in FT2 (using 2.3.8) where I get a bitmap of
width 20, but the pitch is 3.
It happens for Unicode point 215 (U+00D7 multiplication sign) and the
font is simhei.ttf .
If needed, I'll work on making a self contained C file that shows this.
I can't use the FT2 demos because of a different issue (see below)
1) Is this a bug? It certainly doesn't look like valid behavior.
2) Is this a bug in FT2 or a bug in the font? Should a buggy font be
able to cause that?
Another issue: I am trying to build ft2 using mingw make 3.81 and I get
an error in the Makefile:
C:\Development\FT2\freetype2>make.exe -v

make: *** [dos_setup] Error 2
This happens both with FT2 2.3.8 as well as the latest from CVS.
It also happens even when I use "make setup visualc" to skip detection.
