Me too :-(   I couldn't understand why suddenly mozilla was silently 
refusing to start and gramps was giving this:
$ gramps
No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org

...until I realised that `emerge -u world` had just upgraded xfree to 
4.2.99.4.

I'm now in the process of going back to xfree-4.2.1
