The current SVN version does no longer depend on font.dat but uses Pango

no longer occur. I suggest nevertheless you try it in a valgrind session
maybe the error occurs already earlier.

I think I found also wrong color masks which are currently independent
of endianess whereas the SDL manual page uses a ifdef ...
