Bug has become a bit meta. Nevertheless, It suffices for my purpose if INSTALL file mentions dependence on xft and freetype libraries/headers for CTL support. Currently, the file talks about only m17n and otf libraries. If Debian (and possibly other package maintainers are reading this report), they can consider including the above libraries as part of Emacs build dependencies. This way apt-get build-dep emacs will DTRT as regards to CTL support.
