Harmless, but annoyingly verbose - at least, when it isn't our code causing it. Perhaps we need to prod the freetype2 (Cygwin|upstream) maintainer.

Yep. Annoying.

It's simple enough to fix up locally, just to suppress the annoying warning. Just change this:


-AC_DEFUN(AC_CHECK_FT2,
+AC_DEFUN([AC_CHECK_FT2],

(Or similar, I haven't looked at the actual file)



P.S. Incidentally, neither Max nor Brian (nor me :-)) are in the
CONTRIBUTORS file.

Oh... yeah, probably ought to update that! :-) Done.

Thanks, Max! FWIW, another person who definitely deserves to be in that file, but isn't, is Frank Richter (the author of ControlAdjuster and resizeable setup).

Agreed, done.


Max.
