Hehe, it does really drive ram crazy by just font issue. It surpised me. :-)

Anyway, I feel better and now I can wait for the "rm -rf /usr/local/* 
/usr/X11R6/* /var/db/pkg/*" when the ports freeze are over and maybe wait 
for ezm3 1.1 to be release in the ports tree. So, I can try to play more 
with the -O2 and see how it goes. ;-)

Cheers,
Mezz
