Hi,

When compiling mplayer on a uClibc based system without iconv, mplayers
configuration became with HAVE_FREETYPE undefined (depends on iconv)
and HAVE_FONTCONFIG defined. This caused the following link errors:

mplayer.o: In function `main':
mplayer.c:(.text+0x1429): undefined reference to `font_fontconfig'
mplayer.o:(.data+0x229c): undefined reference to `font_fontconfig'
mplayer.o:(.data+0x22c0): undefined reference to `font_fontconfig'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Inspecting the code, font_fontconfig only gets used if HAVE_FONTCONFIG
is defined, but it's actual declaration is dependant on HAVE_FREETYPE
being defined. So I include a patch to correct this situation, it makes
font_fontconfig declaration dependant on HAVE_FONTCONFIG.

Another solution may also be making HAVE_FONTCONFIG dependant on
HAVE_FREETYPE at configure time in the same way as HAVE_FREETYPE is
dependant on iconv, but I don't know enough about mplayer's inerworking
to understand witch of this solutions is the one that makes most sense.

Yuri.
