Doing

  grep 'FT_*.('

in mkfontscale.c (from XFree86 4.3.0), I get the following functions:

  FT_Init_FreeType
  FT_Get_Sfnt_Name
  FT_New_Face
  FT_Get_PS_Font_Info
  FT_Has_PS_Glyph_Names
  FT_Get_Name_Index
  FT_Get_Char_Index
  FT_Set_Charmap

You might check the X source tree yourself; uou can find the program
in

  xc/programs/mkfontscale
