KDE3 compile partial failure

[Roger Oberholtzer]

I seem to recall that freetype2 from the original source places the files
where KDE3 expects them to be. However, the version supplied with
Col 3.1 seemed to have a different layout. I think it was some transition
version between freetype and freetype2. I solved it by installing the latest
freetype2. (If my memory serves.)
