The problem with static linking of the freetype library is that texlive requires
libttf (which is a part of the freetype project) but is neither a part of
freetype nor freetype-devel we have in F7. So that the configure script will
fallback to use an internal freetype which contains libttf.

I made the TeXLive rpms compilable/installable and some basic testing shows that
it works as expected, but some consistency fixes will be definitely needed.

The new RPMs are here:
http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/texlive/texlive-texmf-2007-0.2.fc8.src.rpm
http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/texlive/texlive-texmf.spec

I'm going to file a separate review request for the TexLive binaries and add a
dependency to this bug.
