While its no fix for the problem if this is indeed the issue, you
"shouldn't" be using this mechanism within the X server at all on a
modern system: freetype font rendering is now typically done in the
client, via the XRENDER extension (and a bunch of libraries with silly
names like "pango").

So, if you're not doing this you might want to investigate making the
switch if you can - and if you are, it probably wouldn't explain the
problem because the X server wouldn't be opening the file descriptors
to then leak them.
