See whether the font directory in /usr/X11R6/etc/fonts.conf is correct
(i.e. points to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts and not to, say, "~/.fonts").

I ran into the same problem after updating to 4.3.0 with anholt's
latest patchset via portupgrade(1). Setting the font directory correctly
got rid of xclock's crashes but I still cannot configure the font for
'xclock -d' . I'll try whether this problem persists after a clean
install of the now committed 4.3.0 port.
