You may also want to install pkgsrc's fontconfig, and remove the
shipped fontconfig:

    # cd /usr/X11R6/lib
    # mv libfontconfig.so.1.0 libfontconfig.so.1.0.old
    # rm libfontconfig.so.1
    # ln -s ../../pkg/lib/libfontconfig.so.1 .

And you may also want to instruct fontconfig to never use bitmaps again:

    # cd /usr/pkg/etc/fontconfig/conf.d
    # ln -s ../../../share/examples/fontconfig/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf .

Brian.
