[pcf] Fix Savannah bug #43774. Work around `features' of X11's `pcfWriteFont' and `pcfReadFont' functions. Since the PCF format doesn't have an official specification, we have to exactly follow these functions' behaviour. The problem was unveiled with a patch from 2014-11-06, fixing issue #43547. * src/pcf/pcfread.c (pcf_read_TOC): Don't check table size for last element. Instead, assign real size.
