At least the latest stable version of gd (2.2.4) does not support
this: "configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-libraqm"
My bad, this seems to have landed only in master and no releases
have been made from master since then.
No problem; feel free to re-open this issue once support is
available upstream.
