Comment(by andrea.damore at macports.org):

 My experience: I specified +osd variant but got a build without osd
 support.
 [http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-
 users/2007-November/070154.html This message] suggests not to use
 {{{--enable-freetype}}} and the author of that message explictly told me:
   --enable-freetype doesn't make configure fail when it can't find it
 (like on autotools), it makes it ignore the test and try to compile it

 So far I think there have been a problem with the port dependency on
 freetype but unluckily I dont' have build logs as obviously at the time I
 didn't knew I was going to have problems. I then built mplayer again
 without --enable-freetype and osd worked fine.

 To answer your question: freetype is needed dependency for the osd variant
 but, from what I read, it should just not be in configure option.
