Simply don't rely on internals.  Use only the API and the public data
structures.  If this isn't sufficient, file a bug report so that we
can discuss extensions.  For some reasons, the Skia team didn't do
that – I guess the code in question is a remnant from early,
experimental subpixel support.

The funny thing that they want to move in the opposite direction and bundle FreeType. https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/chromium-packagers/xhmgu-1Vcok
There are folks that consider that to be more secure :). That is a "solution" to all problems. Amazing!
