Generally speaking, this is what <ft2build.h> should be used for.
it should include either a 32-bit or 64-bit version of ftconfig.h depending on
the compiling environment. Ideally, this should be the only file that knows
about OS-specific files like <bits/wordsize.h>

Hi,
For various reasons I have to install on our linux-x86_84 systems
the 64 bit version of libfreetype (in /usr/lib64/) as well as the
32 bit (linux-i686) version (in /usr/lib/).
So far, no problem.
However, the headers installed in /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/ differ at
one point:
config/ftconfig.h contains (SIZEOF_LONG being replaced by 8 or 4)
#define FT_SIZEOF_LONG 8
for the 64 bit version, and
#define FT_SIZEOF_LONG 4
for the 32 bit version.
Of course, the same kind of problem occurs for other biarch systems such as
ppc/ppc64, sparc32/sparc64, etc.
In order to have headers usable for both 32 and 64 bit mode, that ought to
be replaced by something like
(1) for systems with <bits/wordsize.h> (should include all biarch systems)
#include <bits/wordsize.h>
#if __WORDSIZE == 64
#define FT_SIZEOF_LONG 8
#else
#define FT_SIZEOF_LONG 4
#endif
(2) for systems without <bits/wordsize.h>
#define FT_SIZEOF_LONG SIZEOF_LONG
Getting this result might require some autoconf magic, but should not be
overly difficult.
Best regards
