Do you mind if I ask you why you chose pango as the font backend
rather than freetype? I ask because your binaries (as well as the ones
created by the OpenSUSE mingw project) have serious issues with Hebrew
texts (and perhaps other right to left texts).

I am currently trying to cross-compile from Ubuntu, and have had to
make quite a few patches and changes.

Thanks,
Matthew
