Looks like the freetype module in xorg (and XFree86) makes reference to
SFNT_Service->find_sbit_image which is now 0 in FT 2.1.10 (it used to be
initialized to tt_find_sbit_image). This causes X to die rather
abruptly when trying to dereference this symbol:

I assume this was done by design in FT (though I couldn't find a commit
message that said spoke about this particular change). If so, what
should X be doing to correctly obtain the glyph sbit? Thanks!
I have solved the crash. I have been using it for the thirty minutes and
no crash so far. If I do unpatch and it will crash within five minutes.
Here's patch to put in freetype2/files. Don't know if patch is right, but
at least it's fixed for me.

I found it by compared freetype2 2.1.9 and 2.1.10, you can check if you
want to see for youself. I removed compare of Makefile, configure and
other useless stuff.

It looks like 2.1.10 removed or disabled *find_sbit_image? Search for
'find_sbit_image' in freetype2-compare.diff.bz2.
Cheers,
Mezz
