Like I said, -no-freetype and -qt-freetype are only QWS options. Therefore, 
they don't apply to you.

-no-fontconfig does apply to you, but it's pointless to try to build like that. 
You want fontconfig.

And, like I said, we do not test those options.

No. It's one of those in libQtGui that aren't in libQtCore. Probably glib.
