[ft-devel] Severe Type 42 bug

Just committed:

  [type42] Fix glyph access.

  This is a severe bug: We've missed one level of indirection, as
  described in the Type 42 specification.  As a result, ftview
  sometimes showed incorrect glyphs for given glyph names, and even
  displayed `error 0x0006' (invalid argument!) in case the number of
  glyph indices differed between the Type 42 font and the embedded
  TTF.

  Apparently, noone ever noticed it; this shows how much Type 42 fonts
  are in use...

Please test.


    Werner
