As far as I know, gentoo doesn't have any *-dev packages. I can get the 
source by unpacking /usr/portage/distfiles/freetype-2.3.7.tar.bz2, but I 
can't imagine why SL would need it, or where I'd have to place it to be 
found. Here's all the files media-libs/freetype-2.3.7 comes with:

I noticed that in the pre-cmake build process, the header directory 
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/ was copied into the tree, but nowadays 
the destination is already populated by './develop.py configure' with 
files from freetype-2.1.5. I just tried replacing them with the ones 
from /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/, but the linking errors persisted. 
The relevant declarations seem to be in 
./linden/libraries/include/freetype/internal/ftmemory.h, which isn't 
present under /usr/include anyway.
