[tex-live] ttf2pt1 missing

    I've just discovered that ttf2pt1 is compiled only for Windows.
    Please fix the scripts so that it is available on other platforms too.

Sorry, it's not just a matter of fixing the Makefile.  It has no
configure script, no support for srcdir!=builddir in the Makefile,
nowhere to hook in to use the libraries from the TL source tree, etc.

If you or anyone wants to integrate it into the build structure, that'd
be great.  Getting the changes back to the author would be even better,
if it's still being maintained.  I see at ttf2pt1.sourceforge.net that
the last release was 2003-12-31, and that we are several revisions
behind even that.
