Swing/AWT apps don't work inside a sandbox

[Marco Dinacci]

Yes I've my own build and I also have X11 installed. Without changing
the Makefiles it doesn't pull it in and look for it using an absolute
path even if you specify ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH and
ALT_FREETYPE_LIBS_PATH to point to your libfreetype build.

I've found quicker for the moment to use install_name_tool as a
workaround to change the path of libreetype inside
libfontmanager.dylib from /usr/X11/libfreetype.6.dylib to
@rpath/libfreetype.6.dylib after having copied in the lib manually.
