Indeed! Thank you. I had not read the entire text of configure --help  
before sending, just searched it for "freetype" and not found  
anything, since the search was case-sensitive...

I also had grepped the entire source for "freetype" (case-sensitive)  
to see if I could find any mention of the former --enable-freetype  
option and didn't see anything. I had hoped the ChangeLog, at least,  
would have noted the change.
