Because of this (I tried it, too):

$ X -probeonly

[normal messages]
Warning: No FontPath specified, using compiled-in default.
Warning: The directory "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" does not exist.
         Entry deleted from font path.
(--) FontPath set to 
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
[more normal messages]

You see, if you don't say where the fonts are the X server tries to find
them itself.
