 Since you have mentioned this several times, I guess I'll just plug
 FTGL here.  Google for FTGL, look at the API, look at the functionality
 which is provided.  I really don't think much is missing.  Just plug
 fontconfig on the side, and you have got a pretty nice font solution
 for OpenGL applications.  For low font sizes, use textures.  For larger
 glyphs use polygon fonts.
