I had same problem,'freetype-config --cflags' gives:

'-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/freetype2'

I run into this too, but I can't remember details of how I got it fixed,
since I messed with Makefiles and recompilation of pango and freetype2
at the same time :)

Another problem I have with CVS version is that fonts are really huge,
with following change to lib/font.c I get normal sized fonts:

static real global_size_one = 1.0; /* 28.35; */

Correct fix is probably to edit some X or pango configuration file
but I don't know excatly what file I should edit.
