Hello John,

I wouldn't appear rude.

Well, it seems to be pkg-config related, here is the extract of 
/opt/src-2021/cache/jhbuild/build/harfbuzz-2.8.0/meson-logs/meson-log.txt:

Called `/opt/xnadalib-2021/bin/pkg-config --cflags freetype2` -> 1
pkg-config error with 'freetype2': Could not generate cargs for freetype2:
Package libbrotlidec was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libbrotlidec.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libbrotlidec', required by 'freetype2', not found

What is libbrotlidec?
I googled https://github.com/google/brotli but not sure it is correct.

Nevertheless, I suppress this dependency in $prefix/lib/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc and rebuild harbuzz before all 
gtk.
(another suppression is needed after freetype build)
*** success *** [32/32]
:-)

I found also that link:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=964185

It seems to have been fixed in version freetype 2.10.2 and gtk-osx version is 2.10.4.
Thus, it was weirdly supposed to be ok.

Could you please confirm?

Thanks, Pascal.
