support for embedded fonts in PDF documents. These
often do not have a 'cmap', 'post' and 'name' table and
were not loaded by FreeType previously..

+        * src/sfnt/sfobjs.c (SFNT_Load_Face): since many fonts embedded in

+        PDF documents do not include 'cmap', 'post' and 'name' tables, the

+        SFNT face loader has been changed to not immediately report an

+        error if these are not present.

+        

+        Note that the specification _requires_ these tables, but Adobe

+        seems to ignore it completely..

         * src/sfnt/ttcmap.c: removing compiler warnings

         * src/pcf/pcfread.c, src/pcf/pcf.h, src/pcf/pcfdriver.c:
