: a) cpu -amd64,  64-bit cblfs linux, kernel-2.6.38.2

Microwindows is 64-bit clean for the nano-X api and
all nano-X applications, which I assume you're using.
Win32 applications using older constructs like SetWindowLong
have some issues with offsets and pointer lengths, but these
aren't portable in Win32 without modifying the storage to
always allocate space for 64 bit pointers at all times.  Win32
apps can be fixed with no modifications by compiling for 32 bits.


> gcc-4.5.2,

I haven't tested with this but don't forsee any problems, as most
changes in gcc are in C++ not C.



: b) freetype -2.4.4, t1lib-5.1.2.

T1lib has been tested with that version, and I would think that
freetype 2.4.4 should run without issues.  The last version
I tested with was 2.3.12.  Freetype issues arise when their structure
members change names without introducing a new API, which has
occured regularly in the 2.2-2.3 series.

Overall, should be no problems.  Use v0.92 or CVS.

Regards,

Greg
