No.  The culprit is

  #include <freetype/ftoutln.h>

in x2go-nx-libs.  Applications should use header file name macros, as
shown in all FreeType example files and demo programs.  If you change
that to the canonical

  #include <ft2build.h>
  #include FT_OUTLINE_H

everything works just fine, regardless of the internal structure of
the FreeType header directories.
