AFAICT, it's essentially a superset of the other two.

Although it lacks the charset=, path= and -c switches from
d.text.freetype, that functionality is available through other means
(-c is implied if text= isn't used, the encoding and path can be set
in the freetypecap file or via d.font[.freetype]).
