- A new rendering module has been added to create 16-bit Signed
- A new rendering module has been added to create 8-bit Signed
Distance Field (SDF) bitmaps for both outline and bitmap glyphs.
The new rendering mode is called `FT_RENDER_MODE_SDF`, the pixel
mode is `FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY16`, and the corresponding raster flag
mode is `FT_PIXEL_MODE_GRAY8`, and the corresponding raster flag
is `FT_RASTER_FLAG_SDF`.

3a. Use clang instead of gcc
----------------------------
The `clang' compiler can use FreeType's setup for `gcc'; it is
sufficient to set the `CC' variable, for example
make CC=clang
3b. Compiling with a C++ compiler
---------------------------------
FreeType can be built with a C++ compiler, for example
make CC="g++"
If `clang++' should be used it is necessary to also override the
`ANSIFLAGS' variable:
make CC="clang++" ANSIFLAGS=""
