Description:
------------
I get a fatal error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imageftbbox()in php4.3.9 even though other image functions are working.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$fontSize = 5; 
$lineSpacing = 1;			
list($llx, $lly, $lrx, $lry, $urx, $ury, $ulx, $uly) = imageftbbox($fontSize, 0, $fontFileName, $text, array("linespacing" => $lineSpacing));
$textWidth = $lrx - $llx;
$textHeight = $lry - $ury; 
$angle = 0;

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imageftbbox()

Your PHP is compiled against a GD version that doesn't support this.

what gdinfo says ?

<?php
var_dump(gd_info());
?>

According to the source (gd.c):

ifdef ENABLE_GD_TTF
	 PHP_FE(imagettfbbox, arginfo_imagettfbbox)
	 PHP_FE(imagettftext, arginfo_imagettftext)
#if HAVE_LIBFREETYPE && HAVE_GD_STRINGFTEX
	 PHP_FE(imageftbbox,								 arginfo_imageftbbox)
	 PHP_FE(imagefttext,								 arginfo_imagefttext)
#endif
#endif


Currently both imageftbbox() and imagefttext() have the undocumented status so essentially this bug report asks them to be documented. There are currently ~700* functions with the undocumented status but let's leave this one open anyways...

Following is the information got for gdinfo:

array(10) { ["GD Version"]=>  string(13) "2.0 or higher" ["FreeType Support"]=>  bool(false) ["T1Lib Support"]=>  bool(false) ["GIF Read Support"]=>  bool(true) ["GIF Create Support"]=>  bool(true) ["JPG Support"]=>  bool(true) ["PNG Support"]=>  bool(true) ["WBMP Support"]=>  bool(true) ["XBM Support"]=>  bool(false) ["JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support"]=>  bool(false) }

imageftbbox, imagefttext requires freetype-support in gd.
your output from gd shows, that your gd is not compiled with freetype-support.

Still undocumented, but freetype requirement mentioned.
