I imagine it could work fine without it if only a config file is 
provided to instruct it to use some other font by default. Or if a 
command line option instructs it to go contact some font server.

So the current behaviour of xvfb only recommending xfonts-base makes 
good sense.

Looking at recommends is often helpful in resolving tricky 
build-dependencies :-)
