Where $3 is one of 100dpi 75dpi Type1 misc TTF speedo cyrillic or OTF

I thought that fontdir=${libdir}/X11/fonts/$3 for each package, so
that it was as easy as passing --libdir=/usr/share to all the font
packages.

You're right. I didn't know that, it's not obvious from reading
configure --help, but it becomes clear from reading configure.ac

Font-alias needs to be told

--with-top-fontdir=/usr/share/X11/fonts

Apparently --libdir=/usr/share works here too because the default is
${libdir}/X11/fonts

Font-util needs

--with-mapdir=/usr/share/X11/fonts/util

Same again, the default is ${libdir}/X11/fonts/util

and font-misc-ethiopic needs

--with-ttf-fontdir=/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF \
--with-otf-fontdir=/usr/share/X11/fonts/OTF

libdir works here too, the default is ${libdir}/X11/fonts/TTF and
${libdir}/X11/fonts/OTF

So it is a lot simpler than I feared, the only configure option the font
modules need to be passed is, --libdir=/usr/share
