At TeXLive transition, I thought wrongly that this was obsolete 
and unnecessary.  But I notice, after getting Bug#688253 and 
reviewing the package, that this is necessary even now to use 
complete set of morisawa fonts.

I explain a meaning of complete set of morisawa fonts briefly.
As the package name "morisawa5" indicates, this contains fonts
data for five typefaces.

Normally, Japanese fonts consist of only two type faces, i.e.
Mincho(like roman) and Gothic(like Bold sanserif).
But Morisawa fonts have three more typefaces, i.e.
FutoMin(bold Mincho), FutoGo(bolder than normal Gothic), 
Jun101(hand-writing shape, soft or casual Mincho).

One can use Mincho and Gothic of Morisawa fonts without this 
package (perhaps) but one needs this package to use FutoMin, 
FutoGo and Jun101.

So I think it is reasonable to re-add this package.
Thanks for your work.

Best regards,				2012-10-6(Sat)
