Xorg font problem



Hi,

I just upgraded recently to the latest X stuff, and have a strange
issue.  I'm hoping someone can help me find my bug.

I try to run xfig, and get a whole bunch of 

Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-times-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,*--16-*" to type FontSet
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-times-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-*-r-*--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" to type FontSet
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-times-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-bold-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-*-*-r-*--16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" to type FontSet

xfig can't seem to find any of it's fonts.

But I do 

ianw@jj:~$ xset fp rehash

and suddenly everything works.  However, if I kill X and restart, it
does not work again.  xlsfonts from before and after doing the rehash
is the same, so I'm not sure why it takes this for xfig to find the
fonts.

Any suggestions, like what exactly that rehash is doing that isn't
done on startup would be appreciated!
