An alternative way to get freetype, libpng and zlib for OS X is to use the the i-Installer (http://ii2.sourceforge.net/) distribution application. It is primarily for TeX on OS X, but it provides several other useful binaries for OS X.
Thanks larry. I've used that for TeX, which is probably where I got zlib. However, somehow I found it to be a real pain to use, I don't really remember why.
It's too bad that Apple hasn't provided an officially sanctioned package manger for this kind of thing. It's really a mess with Fink, DarwinPorts, Portage, i-Installer, etc. Oh well, at least we can get this stuff working, I wouldn't have even tried with the old MacOS.
