Shouldn't it be the other way round?
I suggest to add a `--libtool' option to freetype-config to help
libtool find the library:
E.g.
libtool --mode=link \
gcc -o test test.o `freetype-config --libtool`
--libtool would yield e.g. `/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.la'.
IMHO shared library support should be supported only within the
framework of libtool.
