So far i can remeber, this is the original old Freetype source in pascal,
(It was originally written in pascal and then rewritten in C).
It's not maintained anymore - but imho has nothing todo with fornix ?
(Have a look at : http://www.freetype.org/freetype1/index.html,
and the name of the authors ...)
