Comment (by vulcan_@…):

 ah ha .. harfbuzz is a port, but is not installed. It comes in with
 FreeType and a few other things .. I install freetype to get harfbuzz and
 try to build handbrake immediately, but still the undefined symbols
 problem is unchanged.

 i see this closed issue on harfbuzz headers being missing on the
 [https://bugzilla.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75652 Freetype bug
 tracker]
