Note that Xft1 now uses fontconfig as well, but still requires the Render extension (I can't fix that in a binary compatible way). This will make MiniXft a configuration liability once this version of Xft1 becomes widely available. If it would help, I can release both Xfts and Fontconfig sooner than XFree86 4.3. That would give distributions a chance to integrate them into build processes along with Gtk+ 2.x as needed.
