As mentioned previously, i compiled with `--prefix=$HOME
--enable-menu'. Now if i tried compiling it with `--enable-menu
--enable-freetype', during configure, looks like freetype is correctly
recognized: 

,----
| Checking for bitmap font support ... yes
| Checking for freetype >= 2.0.9 ... yes
| Checking for fontconfig ... no
| Checking for SSA/ASS support ... no (FreeType >= 2.1.8 needed)
| Checking for fribidi with charsets ... no

But it failed at the end of make: 

,----
| ld: cycle in dylib re-exports with /usr/X11/lib/libGL.dylib
| collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
| make: *** [mplayer] Error 1

Could you share your configure options?
