BTW: I ran into this as well. This seems to be an issue with the
packaged Windows DLLs on Fedora 17. Grabbing the pango and freetype libs
from the site that Lubomir mentioned seems to fix this. I have a hacked
nsi script that does that but I don't want to push this into master as
this seems to just work around an issue on Fedora...
