afaik (I am not a lawer) that's only true for the second part
(TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER) of the patch.  The ClearType
patents (which are violated by FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING) were
filed in 1999 and are probably still valid.

I should have been clearer in the patch description and mention that it
enables also subpixel rendering.
