Do not know if 'mandatory', but at the moment qt-provided/built-in
freetype/harfbuzz are used by both versions (5.6/5.8) in case
GUI is enabled...
I can try without freetype/harfbuzz but I think this will lead to
no/very poor font support (maybe bitmap fonts?)...

If using the system/buildroot provided libraries is preferred it should
be done for both versions...
