What happen if you do something like:

$ gcc -I /usr/include/freetype2 foo.c /usr/lib/libfreetype.so
$ gcc -I /usr/include/freetype2 foo.c /usr/lib/libfreetype.a -lz

BTW, Next one will be failed because functions in libz are not found.
$ gcc -I /usr/include/freetype2 foo.c /usr/lib/libfreetype.a 

Next one will be failed, too.
$ gcc /usr/lib/libfreetype.a -I /usr/include/freetype2 foo.c

foo.c
    #include <freetype/freetype.h>
    int
    main(int argc, char ** argv)
    {
      FT_Library lib;
      FT_Init_FreeType ( &lib );
      return 0;
    }
