Port builds/packages fine. However, I can't get the fonts recognized the
system.

I've copied the local.conf file to /etc/fonts/ as instructed. To further
debug, I've tried adding the path dir directly, a la,

$ xset fp+ /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/
xset:  bad font path element (#56), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/                   
total 1174

I've even tried to build fonts.{scale,dir} using the mkfont{dir,scale]
utils. Still no go. Permissions are the same as for the core fonts
included with XF4.

This is on x86-current from 20/05 and XF4 build from the 03/05 snap.

Anybody else seen this?
