As of xfree86 4.2.1-10, you won't have to anymore.

And the solution isn't "simple", not if we want it to work with a
variety of font configurations.  Also, Juliusz Chroboczek, upstream X
font guru, recommends *NOT* "moving path "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" to
the top".  See:

/usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/README.fonts.gz

If you want to see what the real solution looks like, see:
