I think that is a problem with dependencies in your packages.  pcb only 
pulls in freetype as a side effect of libgd.

gdlib-config --libs

probably shows something like

-ljpeg -lfreetype -lpng12 -lz -lm

which means that you probably have a dependency problem if you installed 
gdlib and it didn't complain or force you to install freetype.

Thats the long way of saying it doesn't make sense to add a check in pcb 
for freetype since we don't directly use it.
