Hello!

Last weekend I built I built one Emacs X client with Fink as 32-bit application using these libraries:

	/sw/lib/fontconfig2/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib (compatibility version 8.0.0, current version 8.2.0)
	/sw/lib/freetype219/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 16.0.0, current version 16.0.0)

	/opt/local/lib/libpng14.14.dylib (compatibility version 27.0.0, current version 27.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/librsvg-2.2.dylib (compatibility version 39.0.0, current version 39.1.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libSM.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.1.0)

	/opt/local/lib/libXft.2.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.1.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libxml2.2.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.8.0)

	/opt/local/lib/libXt.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)

So the Fink variant uses libm17n and a modern libotf with OTF_get_variation_glyphs and the MacPorts variant has a bit older software. I launched both with -Q and them display the HELLO file and edited it to contain only complex scripts. I made a screenshot of both Emacsen side by side and made from the Fink variant's display a transparent copy with text colour in red and tried to position that over the same part of the edited HELLO buffer in the other Emacs. A few differences are visible. I cannot judge whether these differences are improvements, except for one: the Gujarati word in () seems to be in the m17n enabled Fink variant not OK – there is a low "accent" moved to the opening parenthesis.

I am attaching the constructed image. It shows on the left the Fink variant with libm17n enabled and on the right the MacPorts variant with a bit old-fashioned or no software.
