Thanks Andrew, that helped - the "cannot find Freetype" message has gone
now.  But I'm still getting the errors below that, which stop wine from
loading.

Without wanting to get too off-topic, I'm running xft2.  Out of
interest, does this mean
that the FontPath in XF86Config-4 and the dir lines in XftConfig are now
obsolete, replaced by fonts.conf?
