Re
True, for GD I always have this in the Makefile :
CFLAGS=-O -DHAVE_LIBPNG -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBFREETYPE
LIBS=-lgd -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lfreetype -lm

Yes.
I modified gdtestft.c to load the arial font instead of the "times" one by
default.
http://www.documents.cyberabuse.org/fttest.png
Another proof of GD having freetype compiled with it is the phpinfo() result :
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
(with freetype 2)
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with TTF library
(with freetype 1)
If phpinfo() says it's ok and then the function says it's bugged... then I
say something is wrong.
