The libm17n-gd plugin doesn't use any of libgd's text-drawing interfaces.
It only uses these symbols:
gdImageDestroy
gdImageCopy
gdImageCreateTrueColor
gdImageLine
gdImageColorResolve
gdImageRectangle
gdImageColorResolveAlpha
gdImageSetPixel
gdImageCreate
gdImageFilledRectangle
So fontconfig support (as well as xpm support) is a no-op for this package.
