  Silly me, figured it out later after thinking about it.  My old X server
was patched to be able to use TrueType fonts, the one packaged in potato
wasn't.  Hence the X server was panicking when it couldn't load fonts (I
really feel that this shouldn't be a critical error if it can't load all
fonts).
  To solve the problem I simply removed the TrueType font dir from my
/FontPath in etc/X11/XF86Config, and have since installed xfstt instead...
now everything's hunky-dory, and mozilla is displaying pages with nice
fonts.. ahhh :)
