I have found one of the threads:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=10156169&forum_id=39346

The error message is the same as yours, and you have freetype 2.2 installed:

[...]
> Version: 2.2~rc4-1

You could give the patch posted in the above thread a try:

*** freetype.c~	2006-04-11 16:35:35.000000000 -0700
--- freetype.c	2006-04-11 16:35:35.000000000 -0700
***************
*** 85,91 ****
  #include <ft2build.h>
  #include FT_FREETYPE_H
  #include FT_OUTLINE_H
! #if FREETYPE_MINOR>=2
  # include <internal/internal.h>
  #endif
  #include <unistd.h>
--- 85,91 ----
  #include <ft2build.h>
  #include FT_FREETYPE_H
  #include FT_OUTLINE_H
! #if defined(FREETYPE_HAS_DEBUGGER) && FREETYPE_MINOR>=2
  # include <internal/internal.h>
  #endif
  #include <unistd.h>


Since this patch dates from 2006-04-11, it is not in the most recent
released version (20060408).
