We want freetype in ${prefix} to be used instead of freetype in $ 
{x11prefix}, as per our standing policy, because MacPorts freetype is  
newer...

If Xft2 in ${x11prefix} gets confused by using freetype in ${prefix}  
then we should be using Xft2 in ${prefix}, which I would think we  
should be doing anyway because it's newer too. But in r43207 you  
changed the port, Jeremy, from requiring the MacPorts Xft2 to  
accepting an Xft2 in ${x11prefix}. I do have the Xft2 port installed.  
Do you, "spam.spam.spam.spam", or are you using Xft2 in ${x11prefix}?
