Freetype version check failure - copy of DLL failed

[Pete Brunet]

In the process of getting set up for building the open jdk I ran make
sanity and was getting freetype version check failures.  My version of
freetype was installed via the binary installer at 
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/freetype.htm. 

To fix the problem I had to copy C:\Program
Files\GnuWin32\bin\freetype6.dll to
C:\OpenJDK\jdk7\build\windows-i586\btbins

This line in C:\OpenJDK\jdk7\jdk\make\tools\freetypecheck\Makefile was
supposed to do the latter but for whatever reason it didn't:
  $(CP) $(FREETYPE_DLL) $(@D)/ 
I did try editing the file to change FREETYPE_DLL from freetype.dll to
freetype6.dll and also copy the file from C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin
to C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\lib but that didn't fix the problem so
maybe the $(@D) is incorrect. I haven't figured out how to get tracing
turned on so I don't know what $(@D) resolved to.
