OpenVRML's configure script looks for pkg-config metadata to determine
the availability of FreeType and fontconfig.  These files end in ".pc"
and are generally stored in ${prefix}/lib/pkgconfig.  You may need to
make this directory available to pkg-config by setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH.

If that doesn't help, please post your config.log file.
