Current progress is that it renders fine so it is suitable for UI
interfaces but line breaking, cursor tracking, selection are works in
progress.

The module can be found in graphite cvs
https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=66144 in the directory
contrib/pangomod. The module also requires a patch to fontconfig
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105) but I think it should
be possible to make that optional so it doesn't have to wait on that
patch as well.

Hi Owen. Is there anything I can do to help resolve these. Can you
summarise what needs resolved please?
