Unfortunately, we can't help you if you don't give us more details
regarding your system, compiler, etc...

Did you use the GNUMAKE environment variable, as described in the
README.UNX file ??

========================================================================

Extract from README.UNX ??

    The following  should work  on all Unix  systems where  the `make'
    command invokes GNU Make:

      ./configure --prefix=<yourprefix>
      make
      make install           (as root)

    where "<yourprefix>"  must be replaced  by the prefix  returned by
    the "freetype-config" command.

    When using a different command to invoke GNU Make, use the GNUMAKE
    variable.  For example,  if `gmake' is the command  to use on your
    system, do something like:

       GNUMAKE=gmake ./configure --prefix=<yourprefix>
       gmake
       gmake install            (as root)

    If  this  still  doesn't   work,  read  the  detailed  compilation
    procedure available in the file "docs/BUILD" for troubleshooting.
