It's because freetype libraries on BSD are named differently (libttf.so* instead of libfreetype.so*). I found that running 'pkg info -l freetype'.

I guess, that you installed outdated version of FreeType from print/freetype FreeBSD port, which has libttf.so library. The libfreetype.so library installed by print/freetype2 FreeBSD port. Example for v2.7.1:

% pkg info -l freetype2 | grep /lib
	/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.a
	/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so
	/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.6
	/usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.6.13.0
	/usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc
% pkg-config freetype2 --libs
-L/usr/local/lib -lfreetype

As I understood, the exported Makefile (including for nightly builds) is done for Linux (with flagLINUX). The exported Makefile for FreeBSD (with flagBSD and flagFREEBSD) has other contents. Take a look at configuration of current revision of uppsrc/CtrlCore package (or with using TheIDE), for example:

Toggle excerpt from uppsrc/CtrlCore/CtrlCore.upp file

library(WIN32 !MSC8ARM) "advapi32 comdlg32 comctl32";

library((LINUX | BSD) & !NOGTK & !RAINBOW & !GTK3 & GUI) "gtk-x11-2.0  gdk-x11-2.0  atk-1.0  gdk_pixbuf-2.0  m  pangocairo-1.0  fontconfig  Xext  Xrender  Xinerama  Xi  Xrandr  Xcursor Xfixes pango-1.0  cairo  X11  gobject-2.0  gmodule-2.0  glib-2.0";

library((LINUX | BSD) & GTK3) "gtk-3.0  gdk-3.0  atk-1.0  gdk_3.0  m  pangocairo-1.0  fontconfig  Xext  Xrender  Xinerama  Xi  Xrandr  Xcursor Xfixes pango-1.0  cairo  X11  gobject-2.0  gmodule-2.0  glib-2.0";

library(WIN32 !MSC8ARM) "user32 gdi32";

library(LINUX !RAINBOW GUI) "X11 Xrender Xinerama";

library(LINUX  !RAINBOW) dl;

library(LINUX !XLFD  !RAINBOW GUI) Xft;

library(BSD !RAINBOW) "X11  Xau Xdmcp";

library(BSD !XLFD  !RAINBOW) "Xft fontconfig Xrender freetype expat";

library(LINUX !XLFD !SHARED  !RAINBOW GUI) "fontconfig Xrender freetype";

library(OSX11) "X11 Xft fontconfig Xrender freetype expat";

library(FREEBSD | DRAGONFLY) xcb;

library(POSIX !NOGTK !RAINBOW GUI) notify;

library(DRAGONFLY) "Xext Xinerama";

Perhaps, you trying to create some universal solution and already know about this information.

There is a devel/upp FreeBSD port, which used for installation of release version. If you look at its contents, you may understand, that it adapts exported Makefile for FreeBSD, uses related configuration flags and generate files for build methods.

There is also a devel/upp-nightly port on the forum for some nightly revision, which was created for other purposes. I updated it to current 10703 revision and it builds fine (on FreeBSD 10.3).
