Hi pushed reply instead of replay to all, so I'm sending this again.
In the meanwhile the PR has been published:

Hi.
I was facing the same problem since about a week and today I've found the time to check the problem.
Just before checking the mailing list a reading your discussion, I've submitted a PR (I'm waiting for the mail to get the number) with a patch for files/patch-ad.

I can confirm that this resolve the problem with freetype and I hope it doesn't break what the original patch was intended for.

Cheers.
