> Please review this late change for JDK 9. It adds a new configure

> Note that freetype comes with a dual license. For normal GPL OpenJDK
> builds, no additional license is needed as freetype is also GPL. This
> feature is only needed when someone is licensing OpenJDK with a
> different license (which the Oracle reference implementation builds do).

> This change is considered noreg-doc and will go into jdk9.
