FreeType is written in ANSI C, so basically all compilers should work.
The problem is with compilers which are less than ANSI C...

Are you willing to do the work to make sure no FreeType contributor
currently has a patent on code they have contributed?
This should be doable, given that there are just a handful of

see that you have fixed some of the same things I found too, mostly
missing includes to the various error-headerfiles, and a bunch of
unitialized variables for clazz and the various PIC modules, and pointer
