Config.log contains:

	configure:9159: checking for pkg-config
	configure:9190: result: /opt/local/bin/pkg-config
	configure:9204: checking for fontconfig >= 2.2.0
	configure:9208: result: yes

	configure:9215: result: -I/opt/local/include
	configure:9218: checking FONTCONFIG_LIBS
	configure:9221: result: -L/opt/local/lib -lfontconfig

But as you can see, the last result is not saved or fed forward for  
building temacs. This happens "--with-x-toolkit=athena" or "--with-x- 
toolkit=lucid".

Message #8 received at 8030 <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):

Subject: configure.in clears FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS and FONTCONFIG_LIBS
Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 20:05:34 +0100

It seems to me that bugs #7936 and #8030 are the same, so they should
probably be merged.

Moreover, AFAICS the root of the problem is that configure.in (in Emacs
23.2 and emacs-23) inadvertently clears FONTCONFIG_LIBS, so that
'-lfontconfig' is not passed to the linker.  This has been fixed by
Miles on the trunk in revision 102932:

revno: 102932

message:
  configure.in: Don't zero-out FONTCONFIG_CFLAGS and FONTCONFIG_LIBS

  fontconfig, and breaks building when using a strict linker).

This bug causes Emacs to FTBFS on GNU/Linux as well with a strict
linker when configured "--with-x-toolkit=lucid", see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=614823.  I can confirm
that Miles' change fixes that problem.

Any chance to get this fix into Emacs 23.3?

Regards,
        Sven
