That configure switch was added to the portfile at the request of a user: http://trac.macports.org/ticket/13045 > --with-fsspec use obsolete FSSpec API of MacOS, if > available > (default=yes) > --with-fsref use Carbon FSRef API of MacOS, if available > (default=yes) > --with-quickdraw-toolbox > use MacOS QuickDraw in ToolBox, if available > (default=yes) > --with-quickdraw-carbon use MacOS QuickDraw in Carbon, if available > (default=yes) > --with-ats use AppleTypeService, if available > (default=yes) > > I modified my version of the Portfile (running from trunk) > > --with-fsspec=no > --with-fsref=no > --with-quickdraw-toolbox=no > --with-quickdraw-carbon=no > --with-old-mac-fonts=no //this one is for me, since I don't use > old mac fonts ;-) > > and left --with-ats alone. > > Followed with > > sudo port configure freetype > sudo port build freetype > sudo port install -f freetype > > hand tested PHP, works as advertised. > > sudo /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl graceful > > tested the same PHP code with web browser.

But disabling the QuickDraw and FSSpec and FSRef functions wouldn't affect FreeType's ability to load old Mac fonts? > Anyway - I was just taking the opportunity to look into MacPorts in > more depth.
