So have you used the formula given in

  http://freetype.org/ttfautohint/osx.html     ?

It looks like HarfBuzz has been compiled before FreeType was
available.  It *must* be vice versa.[1]  I would have guessed that the
order of lines in the ttfautohint formula file ensures that.  In case
this isn't true: I have no idea how to enforce this in Homebrew,
sorry.  Any help to fix this is highly welcome!

[1] Or to be more specific: The order of compilation should be
    FreeType, then HarfBuzz, then FreeType again.  The last step isn't
    necessary for ttfautohint but beneficial for all other programs
    that use FreeType's auto-hinting module.
