I'm on a Mac, using the package in brew, so I did not configure or build 
this myself.

That's probably it. A quick glance at the homebrew formula makes it seem 
like they use freetype: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/fox

I don't know much about Ruby, but this seems pretty clear:
depends_on "freetype"
depends_on "libxft"

This isn't something I can fix, in other words (except by compiling Fox 
myself, which I don't want to do).

Thanks,
Enno.
