Research direction
Start by reproducing the compilation failure with Arduino 1.6.4 using the library and inspect glcdfont.c around line 15, where the font declaration is reported. Compare the behavior with Arduino 1.0.5; done means the library compiles successfully on the newer Arduino version without regressing the older case.
