My suggestion is that Firefly and Akito work together to unify their
patches.  Another interesting set of patches have been contributed by
Raino:

  http://www.hut.fi/u/reiska/freetype/autohint.patch

I invite him also to participate in a unification of the patches.

Firefly, Akito, Raino, what do you think?  Is this feasible?
