Created attachment 90409 [details] Freetype leak testcase
Created attachment 90410 [details] Bugfix patch from freetype development mailing list.
I haven't verified this bug nor tested the patch. I just spotted it on the mailing list and thought I should bugzilla it so we can test for the problem and fix our package if it is applicable.
I've already verified the leak, verified the fix, and checked a patch into package CVS :-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 85064 ***
