approach for the coloring of interface texts. Currently two seperate fonts get
generated, one black and one white, which eliminates the glPixelTransfer
command. (which assumably caused the huge slowdowns)
Please try, and post your experiences on the interface drawing speed.
NOTE: for this new method you need the *unmodified* FTGL library:

Apologies on any inconveniences...
All modifications are behind compileflag INTERNATIONAL,
and affect these two directories; source/blender/src and
source/blender/ftfont.
Thanks to philipp, a new utf8towchar() function is added
to Shizu's work, which fixes the international support for
OSX. It also makes the iconv library obsolete. This means
all translation files (blender.mo) need to be 'recoded' to
UTF-8, and language support in the fileselect window and
the text editor is not possible. Iconv might be added in
the future to enable these features.
