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.
