No, you don't need meson. See my other reply. I happen to cross-build freetype 
for both mingw32/64 and Darwin (mac os x) from time to time on Linux, just the 
traditional autoconf way: ./configure ... ; make ...

That was how it was done for DECADES, before the NEW meson system was added. 
Freetype 2 is almost 30 years old now, and if you count freetype 1 too, over 
30. Meson itself is only about 10.     On Monday 17 March 2025 at 15:59:29 GMT,

 Hello.

Yes, it's possible, though you'll need to use meson. See freetype
msys2 package build instructions as reference:
