 I was pondering on this whether to leave ports that themselves depend on 
 -vfbserver (or for that matter on -server) port to take care of fonts. One of 
 them would be xorg-core (and xfree86-core) that is being discussed on x11@. 
 However it seems to me now that putting dependencies to misc-fixed font (ie 
 xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps) directly in xorg-server and of course in 
 xorg-vfbserver.
 One other thing that i was thinking is that people may have their fonts 
 provided by fontserver in which case they wouldn't need any font installed 
 locally. However I'd assume that the number of such users is low enough and 
 if they emerge, we could put font dependency under a make knob.
