The situation is different from the 4.0.2 version. At this time the
build of freetype had to be done manually. This is no more the case
and if you install binaries from xfree86.org you will have freetype
installed. Freetype can be disabled (like many other build options)
and I will add this option in the configure script, but the default
will be to install freetype, because the port tries to follow the
official distribution.
