I have two bmp files now. The difference is visible for small fonts 
(i.e. where it was
expected to be visible).

But I've seen another interesting message on the list from Clarence Chu 
regarding
--enable-system-freetype option. This option name seems to be incorrect, 
the right
one should be --with-system-freetype and it should be passed to 
configure. Could
you please add to Makefile in the port (and to knob file) something like
WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE option so that it will pass --with-system-freetype
to configure (like is does for disabling java) ?

I will do one more rebuild with this option (freetype on my system 
already uses
bytecode for TTF) and will post similar fragments of all three 
screenshots somewhere
in png format.

This might be better way than to use the patch, but it also makes 
openoffice build
to be dependant on system freetype2 library changes, so probably it is good
idea to keep the patch anyway (at least until openoffice stops shipping 
tested
freetype2 library in the source tree).

Also, WITH_TTF_BYTECODE_ENABLED and WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE
seem to be mutually exclusive options.

I would do and test this myself but I can't do that today.

Thanks,
Mikhail
