Hi build-dev,

On some Unix environments, such as AIX, the link option to set library 
search patch is the same as Solaris. But in current script the  option 
to link tool freetype_versioncheck is the same as Linux, this makes the 
tool cannot be compiled on AIX.
So in order to improve portability, here I propose a patch to adjust the 
default link option to Solaris' definition.

For other platforms, such as Mac OS X and BSD, I found there's some 
definitions there in macosx port project[1], so maybe we can just wait 
for the incoming merge, right?
