They aren't supposed to be there, but 'share' is missing from SUBDIRS in the top-level Makefile so they aren't being build from the .in files. To fix this, ither modify the top-level Makefile accordingly or make -C share. > # Uncomment to enable Xft (anti-aliased fonts) support. > # NOTE: This feature is a bonus that may or may not work.

Presumably using the drawing layer you proposed? That does not mean it, but indeed Xft support will be removed from the standard drawing engine to keep it as simple and small as possible. (See my previous post on the proposed API.) What is meant by the above comment is that I have better things to do than test compiling and using Ion with the feature enabled (it would be disabled by default even if Ion used autoconf) before every release, so it is not guaranteed to work. -- Tuomo
