Makefile.PL checks whether to compile FreeType support by using `pkg-config 
--exists --silence-errors cairo-ft`.  Apparently, this works for you, so you 
have the cairo-ft.pc file installed.  Makefile.PL then uses the equivalent of 
`pkg-config --cflags --libs cairo-ft` to get the correct compiler and linker flags.

The compilation error suggests that, despite cairo-ft.pc's presence, you don't 
have the FreeType development stuff installed.  If you insist on not installing 
it, simply removing cairo-ft.pc should also work.
