Seems to be a weird problem with fonts in Linux.
Maybe these links could help you:

http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/4.3.0/fonts1.html
http://nexp.cs.pdx.edu/fontconfig/ (emerge fontconfig)

If you find out more let me know and take a look into the Gentoo forum,
many users have problems with fonts in X.
