You should only remove the *-iso8859-1 font; the other fonts (which use
other encodings) shouldn't be called by Mozilla (unless you display some
thai, vietnalmese, arabic, etc web page of course).

If mozilla uses a non iso8859-1 font to display iso-8869-1 pages then
there is indeed a big problem with mozilla.
