Freetype is not the problem.  I already figured it out - my gd font support 
needs -liconv and configure is not adding it to the gd test.  It looks like the 
mapserver configure doesn't get the libs from the gdlib-config script but makes 
a common guess.

I thought I had this working in the past, but it's possible I only recently 
added iconv support to my gd. I forget.
