You cannot manually specify the path. It is automatically determined at 
configure time by using 'pkgconfig xft' or if that is not available using 
xft-config

You have 2 choices:

1. uninstall the development files from the old libXft (especially the old
   xft-config script), or overwrite the xft-config script with the new one
2. Put the path where the new xft-config is before the path where the old 
   xft-config is in $PATH.

If your system uses pkgconfig, then you must overwrite the xft description in 
pkgconfig with the new one.
