Hi,
Glibc-2.25 introduced a namespace conflict with fontconfig. A fix is
in the book , but it is not satisfactory (see thread at [1]), because
it breaks the public API. That lead us to fix also libXft (and maybe
others, I have not checked). But I think this is not right: fontconfig
devs will include a fix in the next version, which will not break the
public API. That means we'll have to "unfix" libXft.
I'd rather see the fix committed in fontconfig's git make its way to
the book (either with a patch or a sed).
I'll study what is possible (3 lines to change in two files) and let
you know.

Pierre
Forgot to add the reference [1]...
[1]
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/fontconfig/2016-December/005892.html
The sed commands which work:
sed -e '/FC_CHAR_WIDTH/s/CHAR_WIDTH/CHARWIDTH/' \
-e '/FC_CHARWIDTH/a #define FC_CHAR_WIDTH FC_CHARWIDTH' \
-i fontconfig/fontconfig.h
sed 's/CHAR_WIDTH/CHARWIDTH/' -i src/fcobjs.h
And libXft builds unmodified.
