will xc/lib/font be modularised?

I've gone back and had another look and I think I can see what my
problem is.  

The header files I need (ft.h, ftfuncs.h) lie in source at
lib/Xfont/src/FreeType.  But when I install the Xfont lib module,
although the pertinent functions (e.g. FreeTypeLoadFont) appear in the
library ($PREFIX/lib/libXfont.a), the headers themselves are not
installed.  A certain number of font headers are installed into
$PREFIX/include/X11/fonts, but the freetype headers are not among them.

It's not clear that I'm supposed to use a configure option to include
these headers.  Freetype is already built by default, compiled into the
library.  Is this a bug in lib/Xfont, that it's not including header
files from subdirectories?
