It's too specific IMHO: We don't have those macros defined:

  BUILD_FREETYPE2_DLL
  FREETYPE2_STATIC
  USE_FREETYPE2_DLL
  USE_FREETYPE2_STATIC

It seems to me that this is an attempt to provide some of the
`configure' stuff in a different way.  I basically don't object to it,
but right now those macros are black box values, so I consider it best
if they are part of the package which defines them.
