Always in the past, these fixme messages were unimportant. I always had
lot's of them too.
Just thought I would also mention that if you use client side font
rendering, there are no more cached font metrics. That hassle goes away.
Client side rendering does require very recent versions of libfreetype
and libxrender, though. And fonts look better, as a nice bonus.
