I suspect it's the same old textmount/binmount problem we encountered some
time ago. The latest font packages had a change which seemd to work on text
and binary mounts but causes problems for a few users.
can you zipup /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir and mail it to me
personaly. use
bzip2 --keep /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir
to compress the file this will create /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir.bz2
which I'd like to see.
