I took this patch from Arch Linux's freetype package[0], but I didn't feel the need to include all of them. If Arch can include it by default, OpenBSD probably can too? I for sure could not migrate to OpenBSD full time without enabling the feature, but I don't mind patching it manually. :) Note though, that enabling the feature does some weird things to font rendering in urxvt, where things show graphical glitches without the "URxvt.letterSpace: -1" X resource. I don't know how other terminal emulators handle it. [0] https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/freetype2
