portal: combating the space-detection issue. what needs to be tweaked next is how far away objects are spawned. it should either be a trial&error adjustment or depend on the object's moving direction and the portal's angle in order to avoid issues with box collisions. if the spawn distance to the portal is just a fixed value (as it was before this patch) or a constant factor (it is now) it can be too big for "nice" portal angles (in tight gaps with still enough space, but -> denied) and too small for bad angles (box collision esp. on big objects like barrels -> denied)

Here is a list of items that need to be addressed in FreeType 2
---------------------------------------------------------------

* Implement stem3/counter hints properly in the Postscript hinter.

* Add CIDCMap support to the CID driver.

* Add track kerning support to the PFR driver.

* Add kerning (AFM file) support to the CID driver.


Here is a list of bugs which should be handled
----------------------------------------------

Other bugs have been registered at the savannah bugzilla of FreeType.

* CID driver:
    Handle the case where a CID font has a top-level font matrix also
    (see PLRM, 5.11.3, Type 0 CIDFonts).  Since CID_FaceInfoRec lacks
    a font_matrix entry we have to directly apply it to all subfont
    matrices.

* CID driver:
    Use top-level font matrix entry for setting the upem value, not the
    entries in the FDarray.  If absent, use 1000.
