The recent addition of Ethiopic fonts to CVS also corrected a bug 
that was present in the scaled fonts Imakefile.  This bug fix 
causes Syriac fonts to no longer be installed by default.

These fonts have been configured all along to default to "NO" 
during build, however due to a bug in the Imakefile referenced 
above, the fonts _always_ got built no matter what anyway.  Now 
that this bug is fixed, Syriac fonts correctly do not build by 
default anymore.

For those who want these fonts to get installed, be sure to add 
to your host.def the following #define:

#define BuildBethMarduthoFonts  YES


I noticed this change of behaviour because we package the Syriac
fonts, and they just stopped installing recently so I
investigated the issue and found that it was due to a bug having
been fixed that just made things work like they should have been
all along, so I thought I would post a quick note of observation
about it in case anyone wonders why it seemingly changed, or 
wrongly thinks something has broken.

Hope this helps.
