At least I know what the problem is, so I'm changing the subject to
more appropriate title.  Thanks to Peter K for confirming that the font
I wanted should have been installed by font-misc-misc.  Just to confirm
my problem...

The only uncommented entry in /etc/locale.gen is en_US ISO-8859-1

[d531][root][~] locale-gen 
* Generating 1 locales (this might take a while) with 1 jobs
*  (1/1) Generating en_US.ISO-8859-1 ...                         [ ok ]
* Generation complete

When I emerge font-misc-misc, ISO8859-1 fonts do not get built.  See
attached build.log.gz.  Note...
