I think I see the problem. The configure script has not been
regenerated with some recent changes to the source configure.in.

If you have autoconf >= 2.6.1 installed, running `autoconf' in the
top-level Emacs directory ought to fix it (in the sense that you
should get a successful build without fontconfig). Or you can update
from the repository in a bit.

You still probably want to sort out your fontconfig installation to
get nicer looking fonts in your build.
