These are built-in fonts, see "Font Path" from "xset q".

"xset fp+ dir1,dir2,dirN" for apps using X11 server to render fonts.
Nothing for apps using freetype2 + fontconfig.

The same is true for native X11. I've fixed xwayland-devel in ports r533550.

Note, X11 server (Xorg or Xwayland) can't render fonts with antialising.

  $ pkg install dejavu xfontsel
  $ xset fp+ /usr/local/share/fonts/dejavu/
  $ xfontsel -pattern '*dejavu*'
