I don't know if this helps, but maybe some configfiles are deprecated,
which cause this fonts.

1. Look at your /etc/X11/XftConfig. Thats the global config file, which
handles the fontpaths for gtk2 and kde. 
2. Do you have a ~/.xftconfig in your home? Maybe edit it or erase it.
3. GTK1 applications are defined through ~/.gtkrc configuration file or
"gnomecc". GTK2 has gnome-control-center or kde has kcontrol (or maybe
newer.. don't know - i don't use kde).
4. GTK1 applications use the X Fonts. These fonts are available through
your X session. Maybe you should check your entries in your
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
5. For example: the mozilla builds from mozilla.org are gtk1
applications. You've define the fonts through gnomecc (gnome control
center) or by editing your home gtkrc.

Maybe this helps you out.
