How do I upgrade GD?

Hi,

how do I upgrade GD? PHP still comes bundled with the three year old version
2.0.34, even though there have been lots of bugfixes in 2.0.35 and 2.0.36
(most importantly, 2.0.36 now actually supports unicode text, rather than
"any unicode text as long as it's only UCS-2", which means any unicode using
blocks introduced after 3.1 don't work).

Related to that, how would one update both GD and FreeType2?
