Doesn't freetype require the XRENDER X11 extension ?

Solaris 9 drivers only advertise this extension when the display is 
running in 24-bit(*), not when in 8-bit color mode.

A close look at the "xdpyinfo" output is strongly suggested, 
specifically the X11 extensions advertised :-)

(*): and that's only when the display driver of your video card supports 
it I believe -- mostly the m10 driver?
