fwiw my xorg.conf does not have a fontpath entry, and I don't have
much problem with fonts (or I have the same problem as you, but have
not noticed it.)
From /usr/share/doc/xorg/changelog.Debian.gz :

and my xorg log shows:
(==) FontPath set to:
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,
/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi
