I don't think it's my doing. See af17b98 and 7bbec45 (from 2009). "We used to allow building with FreeType and without Xft. However, the ftx font backend driver is not in good shape." I don't imagine it has improved in the past decade. Ref also http://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2009-04/msg00514.html where pretty much the same discussion seems to have been going on.
