Thanks forr all the great work - Shout is the best syntax-highlighter 
ever possible... and with FreeType, the anti-aliased fonts finally 
become readable even in small sizes.
Please don't forget that in a lot of European countries it's impossibe 
(read illegal) to enforce a software-patent, so this issue doesn't 
affect all Squeakers - and make it possible to build the VM with all 
possible features enabled without further magic :)
