Thanks, but can you tell a few words about the prerequisites and
limitations?  For example, it sounds like this requires a Cairo build
and the use of the ftcrhb font backend -- is this a requirement, or
should it be possible to make it work with other font backends as
well?  Also, are there any assumptions or requirements regarding the
fonts installed on the system?
