Looks as if I have included debugging symbols in Freetype...
The errormessage just means that gdb can't find the source file, which  
is to be expected.

This means you interrupted Scribus while it was analyzing a a *.TTC  
font.
Do you have any of those installed?

Sorry, wrong conclusion. Only gdb looks for the sourcefile in  
/Developers because
I compiled it there...

Again while reading a *.TTC file...

Ok, let's see what's happening. try  
"/Library/Frameworks/Fontconfig2.framework/Versions/Current/bin/fc- 
list"
This should list all your configured fonts. My current working theory  
is that your fontconfig settings are broken.


Ciao
