./configure can not find your truetype font includes and/or libs. You need to make sure you have the truetype package installed on Linux this is called something like freetype2. On my debian system:

ls /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/
config        ftcid.h     ftimage.h   ftmodapi.h  ftsnames.h  ftxf86.h
freetype.h    fterrdef.h  ftincrem.h  ftmoderr.h  ftstroke.h  t1tables.h
ftbbox.h      fterrors.h  ftlcdfil.h  ftotval.h   ftsynth.h   ttnameid.h
ftbdf.h       ftgasp.h    ftlist.h    ftoutln.h   ftsystem.h  tttables.h
ftbitmap.h    ftglyph.h   ftlzw.h     ftpfr.h     fttrigon.h  tttags.h
ftcache.h     ftgxval.h   ftmac.h     ftrender.h  fttypes.h   ttunpat.h
ftchapters.h  ftgzip.h    ftmm.h      ftsizes.h   ftwinfnt.h


ls /usr/lib/libfreetype.*
/usr/lib/libfreetype.a   /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6
/usr/lib/libfreetype.la  /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.18
/usr/lib/libfreetype.so

It would help if I turned off the find words option ;)  There it is in 
configure, I just need to figure out why it was disabled.

Something has killed my font support in MapServer in the compilation stage.

I'm getting a "Keyword FONT is not valid without TrueType font support" error 
at runtime.  It looks like font support is conditionalized on USE_GD_TTF or USE_GD_FT, 
but I can't figure out where this is set in configuration.  I don't see those in the GD 
sources either.
