Sorry that doesn not make any sense. The so called bytecode interpreter is in
the freetype library, xfce doesn't provide nor recompile the freetype library,
it just uses it.

The only logical explanation is that by compiling from source, you simply picked
up another lib installed in parallel on your system.

But in any case, I don't see how this could be related to Xfce 4.2.3.2.

Sorry, but there is no way Xfce can do anything about using or not using the
bytecode interpreter in freetype.

Moving invalid bugs to the /dev/null product.
