HZ> XFree86 can use two different front-ends of freetype
HZ> library: XTT and xfsft(XFT).

Methinks you're confused.

XFree86 supports two types of client-visible fonts: server-side
``core'' fonts (the kind of fonts used in X11 since its inception),
and the more modern, client-side ``Xft'' fonts.

XFree86 supports exporting TrueType fonts both as core fonts and as
Xft fonts.  You use the Xft library to use client-side TrueType fonts,
and either the ``freetype'' (formerly xfsft) or the ``xtt'' (formerly
X-TT) module to use core TrueType fonts.

Thus, you should use either

  Xft + freetype

or else

  Xft + xtt

but you should not use xtt and freetype together.
