I've done that, same situation happens. Now:
pdestroy localhost:~/gnome-2.0.2rc1/gtk+-2.0.6$ which freetype-config
/usr/local/bin/freetype-config
pdestroy localhost:~/gnome-2.0.2rc1/gtk+-2.0.6$ freetype-config --version
9.1.3

I'm compiling it with gcc2.95.3, can that be the situation?

Config.log says:

Any ideas?
