It was a bug which I've found on RHLinux9 while compiling gdkxft.
It's not here anymore...
It was only another example of header file stuff which I've been a
witness of...
Using the same sources (ver1.5) it works out of the box now on fedora
because of that link from /usr/include/freetype to
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype

Also while compiling nvidia kernel module source-code due to some other
weird stuff I had to make a link from
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2 to
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3. Don't really know where it
still thought that it was 3.2.2, forgot to report-it when I had the logs
in sight...

I assume that this is the right place to report problems caused by
header files... right???
