 Not knowing C/++ when you want to port a C/C++ program makes it very
 hard for you to reach your goal...

        C, I know.  (Though not as much as other folks.)
        GNU build tools ... not so much.
        :-)

        Anyway: many hours of compilation later, I hit this:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lttf

        Quick checking suggests libttf is a Linux-ism, replaced by
libfreetype.  Is this correct, and if so can I just (temporarily)
make the change in the list of libraries?

Why not just try it?

Note, there is/was freetype1 and freetype2...

Bye,
Alexander.
