Hi Tim,
don't see an address for Josh, so you may have to pass this on, but yes
the BLT issue does look like a freetype version problem. The BLT build
seems prone to pick up versions installed in /usr/local, so probably worth
checking if an old version is lying around and removing it.
Cheers,
Peter.
