You might want to add ipe to xpdf copies, but it uses only a tiny
amount of code. What makes it a bit harder is that it doesn't use
original filenames, instead three files contain "Taken from Xpdf 2.01,
Copyright 2001-2002 Glyph & Cog, LLC" (or without the version number).
Those are src/ipecanvas/ipestdfonts.cpp, src/ipecanvas/ipefonts.cpp, and
src/ipelib/ipedct.cpp.
I don't think that xpdf security issues, if they show up at all, are
much of a problem in this case.
Regards, Frank
