Freetype version check failure - copy of DLL failed

[Pete Brunet]

Thanks Tim,  It must be something else.  Here are my two environment
variables:

ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH=C:/Progra~1/GnuWin32/include
ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH=C:/Progra~1/GnuWin32/lib

At a minimum I have to edit
C:\OpenJDK\jdk7\jdk\make\tools\freetypecheck\Makefile as follows:
# change freetype.dll to freetype6.dll
FREETYPE_DLL = $(FREETYPE_LIB_PATH)/freetype6.dll
because there is no freetype.dll in C:\Program Files\GnuWin32, just
freetype6.dll.

Here is my "make sanity" output:

ERROR: FreeType version  2.3.0  or higher is required.
 make[2]: Entering directory
`/cygdrive/c/OpenJDK/jdk7/jdk/make/tools/freetypecheck'
c:/OpenJDK/jdk7/build/windows-i586/btbins/freetype_versioncheck.exe
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/cygdrive/c/OpenJDK/jdk7/jdk/make/tools/freetypecheck'
Failed to build freetypecheck.

BTW, How do I put prints in the make file to see the values of the
variables?
