I too had this problem but finally tracked it to HAVE_XFT_H not being defined 
in config.h. In order to make this so, you have to run autoheader in the 
build directory and ./configure again. Also, configure seemed to have issues 
with detecting Xft and it forgot to include libfreetype as a library so I had 
to hack in a '-lXft -lfreetype' line.

Doing all this made it build and work.
