The reported error is
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.6/../../../../lib64/libfltk.so: undefined
reference to `FcPatternAddString'


# findsym FcPatternAddString
/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: 0001a370 T FcPatternAddString
/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1.4.4: 0001a370 T FcPatternAddString

# grep -r FcPatternAddString /usr/include/*
grep: warning: /usr/include/c++/4.6/x86_64-suse-linux/32: recursive

I often build FlightGear and did so again last night without a hitch on 
one box and probably will do so on another box later. Same openSUSE 
Milestone 5 x86_64.
openScendGraph git, simgear svn and Flightgear git.
