Ok, I got latest CVS and tried again with:
./configure --with-apache=/usr/src/apache/apache_1.3.19 \
--with-gd \
--enable-gd-native-ttf \
--with-ttf=no \
--with-freetype-dir \
--with-png-dir=/usr/local \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local \
--with-mysql=/usr \
--enable-debug --enable-track-vars=yes \
--with-zlib --with-bz2=/usr --disable-display-source \
--enable-sockets --with-imap
Everything compiles fine. However, now I get this when calling
ImageTTFBBox:
<b>Warning</b>: libgd was not built with TrueType font support
I simply installed gd and FreeType per their instructions with no problems.
Any ideas?

OK. I was using "--enable-gd-native-ttf", so this didn't come up.

Yes a typo, although I could have sworn I had written it the correct way
around.

Ouch. This is because gdttf.c assumes freetype 1.x.
A workaround is to use --enable-gd-native-ttf, but beware! the font size is
then measured in points whereas it was previously measured in pixels - the
fonts on your images will get bigger unless you adjust your PHP code.
I'm not sure what to do about this - the native GD routines look nicer
(fonts are smoother). Is it worth the trouble of updating the PHP
equivalent for GD 2.0 and later?
For now, I have settled on the following behaviour:
./configure
"--with-jpeg-dir" \
"--with-png-dir" \
"--with-freetype-dir" \
"--with-gd"
If freetype2 is found, --with-ttf=no and --enable-gd-native-ttf are assumed.
This is going into CVS as we speak.
