FWIW Rasmus posted this about gd 2.01 and 4.0.6 a while back:
Build gd-2.0.1 with these two lines in your GD2 Makefile:
CFLAGS=-g -DHAVE_LIBPNG -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBFREETYPE
LIBS=libgd.a -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lfreetype -lm
Don't install the lib anywhere, just leave them in the gd-2.0.1 directory.
Then build PHP using:
--with-gd=/home/<your_dir>/gd-2.0.1
--with-freetype-dir=/usr
--enable-gd-native-ttf (note there was a typo in 4.0.6 on this one)
use: --enable-gd-native-tt if you are using 4.0.6
--enable-gd-imgstrttf
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr
--with-png-dir=/usr
--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6
This assumes that you have freetype2 installed along with the libjpeg and
libpng libs under /usr
