IIRC the PDF backend had a freetype dependency from the beginning of text
support.

Yet another approach is a new cairo-font_subset-win32.c just
providing four functions stubs. After removage of some unneccessary
includes in cairo-{svg|pdf|ps}-surface.c the three backends are
available on win32 w/o freetype, though with limited text support.
While playing with PDF export I've encountered a bug with pattern
repetition where there was supposed to be none.
The two issues are available in the attached patch. The patch is against
the 1.2.0 tarball cause your preferred version control system does not
work on my preferred development platform. The old style ChangeLog follows.

* src/cairo-font-subset-win32.c : dummy implementation to make
PDF/PS backends compile without freetype
* src/cairo-pdf-surface.c src/cairo-ps-surface.c
src/cairo-svg-surface.c : #include "cairo-ft-private.h"
not needed
* src/cairo-pdf-surface.c : scale the surface_extents to the
pattern coordinative system when used as out-of-page step
