the freetype libraries are not compiled and installed anymore with the
xfree86 module so unless you make it compile with the old freetype2 libs
by hand editing the host.def file, it doesnt install freetype2 at all.  

You might wanna try rebuilding xfree86 "lin -c -r xfree86" and then
configure your host.def file.  Then you might want to view it within the
menu and make sure you have "#define HasFreetype2 YES and #define
HasFontconfig YES in there somewhere.  If not you need to update your
moonbase because your xfree86 module is old.  

If all else fails you can remove the /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype* libs and
then re-lin freetype2 and fontconfig

Let me know how things go.
