I have done this for the current Fedora Core and Extras source trees
now. 

In Core, I found

 fontconfig
 kdegraphics (for xpdf splash in kpdf)
 libXfont
 poppler (for xpdf splash)
 qt
 xorg-x11 (Xprint, fonttosfnt)
 xpdf 
(vnc has a copy of the X tree, but I think thats only because
 it needs to be built inside it)

In Extras, I found

 SDL_ttf
 nx (has copy of the X tree)

I may have missed something (I saw some code still including
freetype/internal/...)
