Did a little looking and there are a number of functions in X.h, included from X11_driver.c
that are useful. Specifically, Xutf8DrawText, Xutf8DrawString, Xutf8LookupString, 
and so forth.

Another relevant file to include from X is Xft.h, it is in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xft 
on my system. This might be included already, not sure.

It has all the defines and prototypes needed for using freetype (and fontconfig
for finding/configuring fonts for applications) and functions for handling Unicode/
UTF-8 strings.
