Summary: writet1.c has problems with HUGE fonts. Patch.
Initial Comment:
Font GoudyIn.pfb causes pdftex segfault, see the README
coming with the patch. This tries a fix by dynamic
allocation of buffers. As a by-result, PFB and PFA font
embedding speed seems to be increased.
Needs more testing...

My version pdfxtex did not exactly segfault, instead it gave
the following pdftex_warning():
CharString: invalid access (1) to stack (0 entries)
(and gdb showed a somewhat corrupt backtrace, probably both
a symptom of the wild pointer). The patch fixed the problem,
and I am now looking at a correct PDF document.
And I also think it is somewhat faster than before.
