I got the code from Miles Bader's GnuArch repository as per http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/XftGnuEmacs, and attempted to compile it. However, it appears something goes wrong with leim: "sudo make bootstrap" produces -------------------------------- if [ x`(cd /home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim && /bin/pwd)` = x`(/bin/pwd)` ] ; then \ EMACSLOADPATH=/home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim/../lisp ../src/emacs -batch --no-init-file --no-site-file --multibyte -l /home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim/../lisp/international/quail \ --eval "(update-leim-list-file \".\")" ; \ else \ EMACSLOADPATH=/home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim/../lisp ../src/emacs -batch --no-init-file --no-site-file --multibyte -l /home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim/../lisp/international/quail \ --eval "(update-leim-list-file \".\" \"/home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim\")" ; \ fi Updating /home/hannu/emacs--xft-jhd--0--patch-1/leim/leim-list.el ...
