I have removed freetype2 completely from the system and installed brand
new again (2.1.9) and the problems persists (without changes to
config/cf/host.def).

The problem happened in lib/fontconfig. lib/fontconfig/Makefile reveals
FREETYPE2INCDIR=/usr/include
This is the problem. It should be
FREETYPE2INCDIR=/usr/local/include
because freetype2 on my system is installed in /usr/local prefix.
My installation seems to be OK:
1) freetype-config --cflags reports /usr/local prefix
2) pkg-config --cflags freetype2 reports /usr/local prefix
3) /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig is included in system-wide environment variable
PKG_CONFIG_PATH

So it looks like XFree86.Org have two bugs:
1) the BUILD file in toplevel doesn't mention freetype2, although it seems to be
a dependency.
2) the BUILD file should either specify that freetype2 must be installed in /usr
prefix, or X.Org should test what prefix it is installed in.
