Apparently they are not (advertised as?) safe on BSD systems.
We ignore the case of static libraries.
Whitelisted on glibc, Android, and MSVC / mingw.

Lohit-Punjabi has a upem of 769! We were losing one unit in our
code, and FreeType is losing another one... Test with U+0A06.
Has an advance of 854 in the font. We were producing 852.
Now we do 853, which is what FreeType is telling us.
This changes the semantics of get_glyph() callback and expect that
callbacks return false if the requested variant is not available, and
then we will call them back with variation_selector=0 and will retain
the glyph for the selector in the glyph stream.
Apparently most Mongolian fonts implement the Mongolian Variation
Selectors using GSUB, not cmap.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65258
Note that this doesn't fix the Mongolian shaping yet, because the way
that's implemented is that the, say, 'init' feature ligates the letter
and the variation-selector. However, since currently the variation
selector doesn't have the 'init' mask on, it will not be matched...
That flag is redundant, deprecated, and ignored since April 2011.

Always ignore global advance.
This makes FT_LOAD_IGNORE_GLOBAL_ADVANCE_WIDTH redundant,
deprecated, and ignored. The new behavior is what every major user
of FreeType has been requesting. Global advance is broken in many
CJK fonts. Just ignoring it by default makes most sense.
* src/truetype/ttdriver.c (tt_get_advances),
src/truetype/ttgload.c (TT_Get_HMetrics, TT_Get_VMetrics,
tt_get_metrics, compute_glyph_metrics, TT_Load_Glyph),
src/truetype/ttgload.h: Implement it.
* docs/CHANGES: Updated.
Remove hb_ft_get_font_funcs() as it cannot be used by the user anyway.
Add hb_ft_font_set_funcs(). Which will make the font internally use
FreeType. That is, no need for the font to have created using the
hb-ft API. Just create using hb_face_create()/hb_font_create() and
then call this on the font (after having set font scale). This
internally creates an FT_Face and attached to the font.
We need to know whether the glyph exists, so we can fallback to
composing / decomposing. Assuming that glyph==0 means "doesn't exist"
wouldn't work for applications like Pango that want to use different
"doesn't exist" glyph codes for different characters. An explicit
return value fixes that.
hb_font_set_scale() now sets the value to be used to represent a unit
pixel. For example, if rendering a 10px font with a 26.6 representation,
you would set scale to (10 << 6). For 10px in 16.16 you would set it to
(10 << 16). This space should be the same space that the get_glyph_metrics
and get_kerning callbacks work in.
