On Mountain Lion it's part of XQuartz which has a different layout than
Apple's X11 had.  freetype-config is in /usr/X11/bin, and that is not by
default on the path.  You need it for the X11 part too.


Thanks, that's helpful. I'll see if an update to autoconf is enough to find it. If not, I'll try a manual addition to configure.ac.

And then I'll try sending the update to CRAN...
