I'm not sure if I understand your advice correctly but
how about the followings:

(ttf-mathematica4.1)
Description: Installer of Mathematica TrueType Fonts for MathML
 To display documents containing MathML equations properly with
 MathML-enabled browsers, you will need TeX's Computer Modern fonts, 
 Type1 'Symbol' font, Mathematica 4.1 fonts and some Other fonts 
 (MathType's fonts) installed on your computer.
 .
 This package downloads Mathematica 4.1 fonts through an internet
 and installs them, because the license prohibits distribution of
 the fonts.
 .
 You will need latex-xft-fonts(TeX's Computer Modern fonts) and
 xfonts-mathml(Type1 'Symbol' font) also to view MathML properly.

 This package provides Type1 Symbol font which is modified from 
 s050000l.pfb of gsfonts with FontForge. 
 .
 You will need latex-xft-fonts(TeX's Computer Modern fonts) and
 ttf-mathematica4.1(Mathematica 4.1 fonts) also to view MathML
 properly.


I welcome any comments, suggestions and/or advices.
