If you would like to have antialiasing, you need to use freetype
library directly from magicpoint, not via xfs.
Possible gotchas:
- If you do not have -DFREETYPE in your Imakefile, "configure" script
failed to find your freetype library.
- You need to configure truetype font path by using %tfdir directive,
or specify full pathname to %tfont.
