Warning: The +bytecode variant causes FreeType's TrueType driver to be
compiled with a bytecode interpreter that produces better-looking output
than the default auto-hinting method. However, the methods used by the
bytecode interpreter are patented by Apple Inc. Only use this variant if
you have purchased a license from Apple or live in a country where Apple's
patents to this technology do not apply. For more information, please
