So, when you try to download libxft-bgra from the AUR as Luke suggested libxft-bgra from AUR it shows you a 404 error which suggests that the package has been removed. Searching for it in the AUR gave me these results 1st result and 2nd result.
St doesn't seem to crash without it, at least for me. Just pointing it out that the original package is nowhere to be found.
