Looks like it could be correct. Is the calloc() still needed? It looks
like the loop writes all of the nbuffer image now.

With these things, the gaussian blur is usually what slows it down
most, though I didn't check in this case. Compared to xy-vsfilter, it's
inefficient because it blurs each glyph individually instead of whole
glyph runs, but also because the blur implementation is plain
inefficient. The first issue is a bit hard to fix (although there's
someone who wanted to write a patch for it), but the second issue just
needs someone who is enthusiastic about optimizing gaussian blur.
