Ignore invalid `setcurrentpoint' operations in Type 1 fonts. This fixes Savannah bug #28226. At least two wild PostScript files of unknown provenance contain Type 1 fonts, apparently converted from TrueType fonts in earlier PDF versions of the files, which use the `setcurrentpoint' operator inappropriately. FreeType currently throws an error in this case, but Ghostscript and Adobe Distiller both accept the fonts and ignore the problem. This commit #ifdefs out the check so PostScript interpreters using FreeType can render these files. The specification says `setcurrentpoint' should only be used to set the point after a `Subr' call, but these fonts use it to set the initial point to (0,0). Unnecessarily so, as they correctly use an `hsbw' operation which implicitly sets the initial point.
