It's transitive, so if it doesn't like the freetype2 version it won't
use fontconfig either.

There's some debugging hooks I put in some years back for figuring out
what's causing unwanted builtin decisions; might want to give that a
try.

It's not uncommon for the builtin.mk logic that tries to deduce
library versions to fail.
