It seems FreeType has some inconsistencies with its releases and naming 
of the DLL. I have copies of freetype-6.dll, freetype6.dll and 
freetype.dll - all version 6 and all downloaded from somewhere on the 
Internet.

I guess the one good thing is that there is a fpReport TODO item to 
remove the freetype*.dll dependencies for Windows in the future. That is 
already possible with the AggPas exporter, but in that specific case I 
prefer the freetype usage as it generates better text via AggPas and has 
more features that the Windows Font API supports.
