Bruce, this isn't what you said you wanted. I believe what you want is:
1. Configure fontconfig as it is now (possibly not --without-add-fonts)
2. Install X fonts in /usr/share/X11/fonts. This would require
(untested) changes to Xorg.
3. Symlink /usr/share/fonts/X11-{OTF,TTF} -> /usr/share/X11/fonts/{OTF,TTF}
Correct? We need to come to a consensus here before we can move
forward. I don't really care which path is followed, so long as
fontconfig can find TrueType fonts but not bitmapped fonts.
