Yes, still configure driven. I've ever written a howto document
to build FreeType2 by Xcode.

http://gyvern.ipc.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~mpsuzuki/howtobuild-ft2-xcode31_20110617a.pdf

Because there are some limitations in building by Xcode, and,
I'm not sure whether Xcode project file is stable, I hesitate
to propose the inclusion of Xcode project file into FreeType2
tarball.
