This means that there is a bug somewhere in your code...

You are saying `./configure --disable-dynamic; make', right?  There
might be a problem with the libtool version shipped with FreeType's
tarball; perhaps others on the list can assist you here since I don't
use a Mac.

In case you are using gcc for compilation, you can also try

  make devel
  make

(using a clean FreeType tree) as a temporary solution just to get
something static.
