I think better is to add -I../fontconfig to the includes

you need to edit Xft.h not Xftint.h  Xrender.h gets included from
X11/extensions/Xrender.h  if you change that to Xrender.h and add
-I../Xrender to the includes, everything works fine.  Hopefully there will
be a working fontconfig package in the next garnome, but making those few
changes cleared everything up for me.
