msttcorefonts package and X fonts?

[Geoffrey Romer <gromer@hmc.edu>]

I've been trying to get anti-aliased fonts working in X, and as part of that
effort, I've installed the msttcorefonts package, containing a selection of
handy TrueType fonts. Unfortunately, msttcorefonts doesn't use defoma
(there's a bug open on that, tho), and consequently I can't seem to
access those fonts through the normal X mechanisms (xfontsel, etc.).

Does anyone know of a workaround to incorporate those fonts into X in the 
absence of defoma support in-package? I have already done the following:

-ensured that the line 

dir "/usr/share/fonts/truetype"

is in XftConfig

-run mkttfdir in /usr/share/fonts/truetype
