What binaries are we talking about? I'm pretty sure the effbot.org
binaries have _imagingft in them, at least:
$ unzip -v PIL-1.1.7.win32-py2.6.exe
...
324608 Defl:N 170249 48% 11-02-09 13:42 5462e136
PLATLIB/PIL/_imaging.pyd

PLATLIB/PIL/_imagingtk.pyd
...
(I think there's a sanity test for this in the upload tools, but I'm
not 100% sure about that)
No Windows box within reach right now, so I cannot check if there's
some other problem with the ft module
