[plt-scheme] freetype

Whenever I build the PLT tree on a new Debian system I have to first,

cd /usr/include
ln -s freetype2/freetype

otherwise these "yes"s turn into "no"s when I run configure:

checking X11/Xft/Xft.h usability... yes
checking X11/Xft/Xft.h presence... yes
checking for X11/Xft/Xft.h... yes
checking for XftTextExtents8 in -lXft... yes

Is this a problem with the way Debian installs freetype2 headers
(/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/*.h, so that you may put freetype1
headers in /usr/include/freetype/*.h) or with where the configure
scripts expect headers to be?
