Here is the state of art. As I said yesterday with Kubuntu 10.04 I
cannot compile any GNU emacs git version mayor than commit 
        524eeb2e5e158d98ea52fe5ebe4768c4433ba8b2 
by Handa-san.

This commit changes ftfont.c 

There is a ongoing discussion how to deal with the situation. I (and any
other Ubuntu 10.04 user) have to upgrade libm17n-dev, which is not
completely trivial, since other packages should be upgraded as well.

Be it as it may I just picked up 
commit  da88ad6cb1e98ef9f28462648ab53d81d22dd189 

But replaced ftfont.c by the pre-Handa release.

This worked but the hook problem continues. Meanwhile I see that Handa
undied some of his changes. I will write him pick up the most recent
version and let you know.
