New to this list (well, I only follow the discussion actually), I
discussed about this issue with the guys that works too on the GD
extension for PHP. We never got any problem to link the extension with
freetype 2.x and we did not find any bugreport about it.

However if this causes the problem, can you post a bug on
http://bugs.php.net and we'll try to fix it for the next release.

Btw, it is too late for the 4.3.2 which is freezed and only security
fixes should be applied.
