>Description:
        For unknown reasons there are only font-paths to /usr/pkg/...
        in the file /usr/pkg/etc/fontconfig/fonts.conf.
        But this file seems to be examined by (I think it is libpango in) 
firefox
        to get the correct fonts.
        The "default" fonts in /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts are not found.
        Additional manual intervention is required to make it usable.
        Relevant contents of /usr/pkg/etc/fontconfig/fonts.conf:
<!-- Font directory list -->

        <dir>/usr/pkg/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
        <dir>/usr/pkg/share/fonts/urw</dir> 
<dir>/usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/fonts</dir>
        <dir>~/.fonts</dir>

        This was not nessesary in the past where firefox will come up without 
manual
        modification of /usr/pkg/etc/fontconfig/fonts.conf.
        Contents on netbsd-4.0 with pkgsrc from 2008:
<!-- Font directory list -->

        <dir>/usr/pkg/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
        <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir> 
<dir>/usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/fonts</dir>
        <dir>~/.fonts</dir>



>How-To-Repeat:
        Setup a fresh 5.1.2 and install firefox from pkgsrc-2012Q2.
        firefox will dump core during startup after libpango complaining
        about not found fonts.
        Output in terminal:
(xulrunner-bin:17669): Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, expect ugly 
output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='common'
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

>Fix:
        Add /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts as path to fonts.conf file during 
installation.
        (or the standard font path of the underlying system ...)
        After adding this path, firefox will start normaly.
