Hello JK,

This is where we run into murky waters. After the
latest Gentoo packages are installed:

Compiled with ICU version 3.4 [with modifications for
XeTeX]
Compiled with zlib version 1.2.3; using 1.2.3
Compiled with FreeType2 version 2.2.1; using 2.2.1
Compiled with fontconfig version 2.2.1; using 2.5.0
Compiled with libpng version 1.2.15; using 1.2.15
Compiled with xpdf version 3.01

Note that fontconfig has been updated to 2.5.0.

For freetype:

rooijen at love206a-rooijen ~/Xelatex/Japanese $
freetype-config --version
9.16.3

rooijen at love206a-rooijen ~/Xelatex/Japanese $
freetype-config --ftversion
2.3.5

The 2.3.5 is the only version installed in my system,
according to gentoo emerge. I used 'locate freetype'
to find out more, there seems to be only one version.
Where / how does xetex think it has freetype 2.2.1?

Bye,
Wilfred
