README for gtk-maglis-000309-0.patch.gz

This file is a patch against GTK+ 1.2.7
It changes one file, gtk/gtkfontsel.c

NOTE: This patch renders gtk-maglis-000308-0.patch.gz obsolete.

In some systems there are fonts with a `nil' foundry. The font selection
dialog code does not check for this. The result is a core dump (segv.)
The patch converts the "(nil)" string in the font foundry to a "" string
and everything works fine. I also changed the GTK function that attempts
to load a font to early check if the font can be loaded. These two bugs
combined result in the application to crash.

I applied the patch with the following command, from the gtk+-1.2.7 dir:

patch -p1 -i gtk-maglis-000309-0.patch
