The ChangeLog entry does mention the specific change explicitly:
2005-02-28 David Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED]
...
* src/sfnt/sfdriver.c (sfnt_interface)
[TT_CONFIG_OPTION_EMBEDDED_BITMAPS]: Don't use `tt_find_sbit_image'
and `tt_load_sbit_metrics'.
...
So the change is intentional. I just upgraded to stock freetype 2.1.10
(was using cvs-2004-dec-31), went around a few web pages with mozilla-xft,
and I don't have crashes. I am using xorg 6.8.2 on linux. How do you
trigger the crash?

Yes, there must be a reason, but that commit message doesn't list
sfdriver.c explicitly. That's why I was wondering what the exact reason
was for the change, and what new steps should be done to get similar
results from FT.
