Problems with drawing text in 1.3.29

Thanks for the suggestions.

I've narrowed one of the issues down to WineEngGetGlyphOutline
in dlls/gdi32/freetype.c.

The pitch is 6640 and the height is 53003. This means that a buffer of
~335Mb has been allocated and then memset.

This is where the slow down is occurring (because of the memset). I suspect
the resultant crash is also because of this.

I would suggest that limits need to be placed on the maximum pitch and
height.


I do not however believe that this is the root cause just one of the
symptoms.
