Summary:                    Additional path to internal GDFONTPATH
Description: 
I'd recommend changing the internal default of GDFONTPATH to prepend
/etc/opt/csw/share/fonts/truetype since /etc/opt/csw is often used to
override /opt/csw.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I originally went with creating /opt/csw/share/fonts/truetype
(fonts/truetype does not normally exist) and putting in symbolic links for
'arial.ttf' and 'Time-Roman.ttf' to resolve an issue with an application.

Since I would be replicating this to a number of other systems, I thought
it best to follow standard practice and moved the local changes to
/etc/opt/csw.

Since the libgd.so library only had an entry for
/opt/csw/share/fonts/truetype, I created a symbolic at
/opt/csw/share/fonts, pointing to /etc/opt/csw/share/fonts.
