febe3fbeba A first check of FT2's Make system. Many smaller and larger bugs have been
fixed:

. Removing unused variables.

. detect.mk files now must provide $(CONFIG_FILE) and not $(CONFIG_RULE).

. ansi.mk will now be really used as a fallback if the detect mechanism
  fails.

. ANSIFLAGS will now be really used (fixing a typo).

. `make clean' now works (again two typos).

. Detection of gcc on Unix has been fixed (using the `-v' option instead of
  `--version').

. `make devel' now works (on Unix).

. Fixing *again* a bug in demos/graph/x11/rules.mk to allow multiple use
  of `-L' compiler options.

. $(BASE_H) now contains a few more header files.

As usual, a lot of formatting (not finished yet).

2dfb5aca28 added a new experimental Type 1 driver. This version sports several
improvements compared to "src/type1". Briefly :

  - the postscript-like interpreter is now gone. We now perform
    pattern-matching to load our font content. The resultant code
    is much faster, smaller, and easier to maintain.

    For a more detailed description, see the comments at the start
    of "src/type1z/t1objs.c"

  - the glyph loader will be greatly simplified really soon, and the
    clumsy hinter will be ditched in favor of a more general auto-hinting
    module (when we get one).

    The goal is to strip down the Type1 driver to about 15-20 Kb.

This is still an experimental version. It is added to the repository
for archiving. You should not try to use it for now (it won't work
because some crucial parts are _knowingly_ ignored for now !).

Note that the "old" type1 driver will probably move to the "demos/src"
directory, in order to show how one can replace one given font driver
at runtime (and to provide the functionality of the "t1dump" program).
