Nyes

It is a bug in that we assum that X handles it's fonts.
It is not a bug in that the user should have in his X configuration
(even though he uses an x font server):

Add to XF86Config-4 (in Section "Module"):
        Load "bitmap"
        Load "freetype"
        Load "speedo"
        Load "type1"

And all will work.
