Exactly.  Mohammad, you have neither named your shell, nor the
FreeType version you use, nor have you shown any output of the
failure.  And what do you mean with a 'faulty shell', mentioned in a
previous e-mail?  We need a log file output and such things!  Maybe
some non-`sh` features have crept into the top-level `configure`
script that can be easily fixed (though I'm not aware of any).
