    Description

      The QMAKE_CFLAGS_FONTCONFIG and QMAKE_LIBS_FONTCONFIG used to be set by configure but is now no longer set.

      $ grep -Hnr QMAKE_.*_FONTCONFIG .
      ./config.tests/unix/freetype/freetype.pri:13: QMAKE_CFLAGS += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_FONTCONFIG
      ./config.tests/unix/freetype/freetype.pri:14: QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_FONTCONFIG
      ./src/platformsupport/fontdatabases/fontconfig/fontconfig.pri:6:QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_FONTCONFIG

      As a result, detecting system freetype with config.tests/unix/freetype fails when cross-compiling:
      [...]/config.tests/unix/freetype/freetype.cpp:40:22: fatal error: ft2build.h: No such file or directory
      #include <ft2build.h>
