The following reply was made to PR ports/22328; it has been noted by GNATS.

On the other hand, it may be the same tool, being = used to finish the conversion.

The one, that comes with t1utils, though, is a newer version. Whereas the ttf2pt1's t1asm.c latest revision ends at Revision 1.2 92/05/22 11:54:45 ilh The t1asm.c coming with t1utils has * 1.5 and later versions contain changes by, and are maintained by, * Eddie Kohler <eddietwo@lcs.mit.edu>. * Revision 1.4 92/07/10 10:53:09 ilh The last fix to it was done, apparently as Version 1.20 22.Jun.2000 * t1asm: Fixed bug where `t1asm -a' would give a `warning: line length raised to 4' error message. Reported by Tom Kacvinsky <tjk@ams.org>. It is easy for me to just not install the "older" ttf2pt1's t1asm, but they appear to have diverged substantially from the common root since 1992. I wonder, what the software author's (babkin@bellatlantic.net) can tell us :) -mi P.S. Wow. Just 8 years, but the code's origins and versions feel like Tacitus' writings!
