[pygame] Re: testing on Windows 64

hi,

thanks for trying it out.

yeah, the font libraries were updated.  freetype, and SDL_ttf.  They
should be the same versions used currently on the Mac.

That's kind of annoying... but I think for the better I guess.  Anyone
have any ideas for how to make the fonts render like before (without
downgrading the font libs of course :)?
