	C, I know.  (Though not as much as other folks.)
	GNU build tools ... not so much.
	:-)

	Anyway: many hours of compilation later, I hit this:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lttf

	Quick checking suggests libttf is a Linux-ism, replaced by
libfreetype.  Is this correct, and if so can I just (temporarily)
make the change in the list of libraries?
