 Replying to [comment:2 holtzermann17@…]:

 It doesn't.

 > Investigating further (with the help of the Emacs guys), here's a more
 detailed error from the configure process when I built from source:

 That sounds like the problem you'd get with software that is not
 compatible with freetype 2.5.1 and later.

 The diff you proposed is not the correct fix. Consult the freetype
 documentation for the proper way to include freetype headers.
