SDL_ttf: FreeType and ZLib functions no longer exported

FreeType and Zlib appear to be embedded in SDL2_ttf-2.0.18.dll rather than being supplied as separate DLLs as previously. Unfortunately this means that functions in FreeType and Zlib which were previously exported, and could be called by the main application (for example my app calls FT_Library_Version() and gzopen() etc.), are no longer available.

Can I request that if FreeType and ZLib are going to be embedded, their public functions are added to the DLL’s export table.
