I'm aware of the issue. Fluxbox isn't playing nice with Xft2. I'm working on it
as I write this, but was hoping the pressure wouldn't be so great because the
xft2 package is masked. On the other hand, Openbox wants to see Xft2, and I've
had to pull some trickery to get it to play nice along side Fluxbox.

It's being dealt with.

Xft2 is a masked, nonstable build, and break a handful of things. If Xft2 was
released to the stable branch this would be a valid bug, however it not even in
testing.

Once Xft2 is declared stable/testing you're welcome to resubmit this bug.
