build the matplotlib users guide failed

Have you installed the freetype2 library (freetype.sourceforge.net)?
I had the same problem last night while trying to build the wxagg
backend, I had to download the library, install it and then play quite a bit
with the settings in order to make it compile. It's not in the CVS layout.
  HTH.
