True, but will it solve the -lfont issue?

Anyway, I made the symbolic links (this will solve some other
compile problems I'm having, thank god). We'll just see if it 
helps XFree86...

Anyway, who decided that freetype include files would be put into
a seperate dir? (I beleive this has been asked B4). Not very nice
for all the programs that depend on it...
