Read the following:

Running rpm as root is unwise, unless you blindly trust the .spec file
author.

I've attached the patch I made to freetype.spec. I enabled anti-
aliasing for ft1 and ft2, and picked up the missing files.
I also noticed that I needed to set my '--target' in rpm to
i386-redhat-linux-gnu
or something else that included '-gnu' so that the configure
scripts properly knew to build shared libraries (like, libttf.so).
I'm not sure the results are satisfactory -- it appears to be over-
aliasing some of the glyphs (lowercase 'k' being an example).
