There's plenty of people who think they're qualified to compile from source (*cough* Gentoo *cough*), and don't realize that anything from missing dependencies to different compiler flags can cause trouble.
If they like spend their time looking at the compiler's output we can do nothing to mend their minds.
These people will file an endless stream of bug reports, and waste our time if we don't fix this somehow.
I'd suggest to add freetype and fontforge to the optional support libraries list in the README file and be done with this "regression".
