Re: [matplotlib-devel] Fontcache problem on windows

[Michael D. <md...@st...>]

It's possible -- the version of freetype in the win32_static.tar.gz 
package is 2.1.7.  I have 2.1.9 on my (working) Linux box.  Perhaps 
something between those point releases fixes this bug.  But it could be 
a lot of other things, too.

I'm going to file a bug for this so it doesn't get lost.

Cheers,
Mike
