Re: patch for font glyph transformation in freetype.c

Dmitry,

I'll resubmit the patch taking into account your suggestion about the
transformation matrix. It makes sense; I recall experiencing the same problem
for the rotation matrix. It shouldn't break anything in our application since we
were only using the extra transformation matrix to do flipping which only
implies e11 and e22.

Thanks for the correction.

Dave

If you can't test the proposed change in your environment or you don't care
about the change at all there is no need to resend it. I'll send the proposed
patch separately after the commit. Just say it clearly, whether the proposed
change is ok or it will break your application, in the latter case we will have
to find the source of breakage.
