Yes. And therefore I want to delegate this to ld to link those
libraries that exist twice statically when I have control which
library gets used. And since the information about the libraries to
link comes from PC files, I need to patch them somehow.
In more detail: the version of libfontconfig in /usr/X11R6 is too old
to be used by GNU Emacs, it misses some API elements (FC_WIDTH and
FC_WEIGHT_REGULAR – or is it from libfreetype?), so that GNU Emacs
cannot be compiled. So in this case I have to use the other
libfontconfig (or libfreetype).
