Yes. freetype-2.3.5. There are arcane historical reasons I don't fully
comprehend why the pkgconfig version doesn't match the release version
(and why freetype2 is called freetype6 on Debian and derivatives)...
but my numbers do match yours.

Always good to have more details, but I'm sort of at a loss on this one,
especially since I can't reproduce it.
Maybe we need to take a poll on this list of who is working and who
isn't to see what the source of the breakage may be...
