[Mapserver-users] Problems with true type font

Hello,
When trying to use the gd library
compiled on XP with Visual C 7 using mapserver 4.0 GD 2.0.15 FreeType 2.2.5
and at the 
execution I get the following error:
msGetLabelSize(): TrueType Font error.
The point is that mapserver looks for true type support in gd.lib, doesn't
seem to use freetype.lib. How can I avoid the problem? I mean, we are trying
to merge the two libs into one, but this seems to be an huge task, is there
a way to force mapserver to look in the freetype.lib for true type support?
Any other way to avoid the problem?
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks
Benvenuto
