It is not.

  [  --enable-fontconfig     fontconfig support (default enabled)])

  if test "${SYS}" != "mingw32"; then
      if test "${enable_fontconfig}" != "no"; then
             AC_CHECK_HEADERS(fontconfig/fontconfig.h,
                 [VLC_ADD_CPPFLAGS([freetype],[-DHAVE_FONTCONFIG])
                  VLC_ADD_LIBS([freetype],[-lfontconfig])])
