Try adding this in your ~/.gtkrc:

style "user-font"
{
  font="-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"

Of course, use a font, that works. xfontsel can help you. Or xlsfonts. If
everything fails, use "fixed".

There's also a nice program called gtk-theme-switch, currently in pkgsrc-wip
(http://pkgsrc-wip.sf.net)
