@mdboom ping on this too, I know very little about this section of the code. |

The core freetype API is actually quite stable, so I don't see why this wouldn't work. |

In RC1 of mpl 1.4.0 the freetype version is now determined correctly using
freetype-config --ftversion(before--versionwhich returned the libtool version9.22.3in my case). This however now leads to the case of matplotlib rc1 not installing on my machine as I have freetype 2.3.11.My question is: Is freetype2 2.4 really required? Due to the setup bug in mpl 1.3.1 I used mpl with freetype 2.3.11 without any problems for several months now. It could be possible though that I didn't use all relevant features which would actually require 2.4 if that's really the case.
