I installed TrueType on my machine today and discovered a
number of clashes with other INITs I use. Then after some
investigation, I discovered workarounds which I present
below.

1.zDeskPict:
  ---------
  zDeskPict crashed the machine after I installed TrueType. A modal
  dialog appeared, but it was so far gone that it couldn't even show
  the bomb box properly, but instead just flickered.
  The fix I came up with for this is to rename TrueType as zTrueType,
  so that it would load after zDeskPict.

2.IconColorizer:
  -------------
  IconColorizer would not load the icons from the Icon CZ Icon data
  file under TrueType, regardless of if it loaded before or after.
  The fix I found was to load the icons directly into IconColorizer
  with ResEdit.

I hope this helps other people figure things out.
