sysutils/grub2 fails to build

[Paul Goyette <paul%whooppee.com@localhost>]

With an up-to-date pkgsrc (as of 2018-08-02 at 01:42:09 UTC), and all
packages rebuilt in an empty sandbox, I am unable to build grub2:

mv -f grub-core/loader/.deps-util/grub_file-macho64.Tpo grub-core/loader/.deps-util/grub_file-macho64.Po
./build-grub-mkfont -o unicode.pf2 ./unifont.pcf || (rm -f unicode.pf2; exit 1)
mv -f grub-core/loader/.deps-util/grub_file-macho32.Tpo grub-core/loader/.deps-util/grub_file-macho32.Po
./build-grub-mkfont -o ascii.pf2 ./unifont.pcf -r 0x0-0x7f,0x2190-0x2193,0x2501-0x251B || (rm -f ascii.pf2; exit 1)

I have verified (from within the sandbox!) that

/usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so.18 is a symlink, and points to
    ..../libfreetype.so.18.16.1, which exists

HOWEVER, there is no libfreetype.so.18 anywhere in /usr/pkg

# find /usr/pkg -name 'libfreetype*' | ls -l
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  28 Aug  2 03:05 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links/lib/libfreetype.a -> /usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  29 Aug  2 03:05 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links/lib/libfreetype.so -> /usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  32 Aug  2 03:05 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links/lib/libfreetype.so.17 -> /usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so.17
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  37 Aug  2 03:05 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links/lib/libfreetype.so.17.4.11 -> /usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so.17.4.11
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  37 Aug  2 03:05 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links/lib/libfreetype.so.18.16.1 -> /usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so.18.16.1
#

As you can see, all of these are symlinks pointing to file of the same
name located within /usr/X11R7/lib/

It seems odd to me that there's a libfreetype.so.17 (and .so.17.4.11)
yet there is no libfreetype.so.18

Is there maybe some issue with the x11-links package having created a
link to an older library version?
