Hi Hedge,

3 years ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding a crash of
the Xserver possibly caused by xfstt font server. Some security concerns
were raised. But, nothing happened since April 2004. Did you reproduce
the problem recently?
No, I have not seen any font-related crashes lately.
Problems with truetype fonts are long gone.
