If the user has LANG or LC_ALL for root specified and his language has some weird characters, the /etc/fonts/font.config file has broken line #17: In my example (LC_ALL=cs_CZ): <!-- Font directory list configured on Út øíj 22 12:50:13 CEST 2002 --> As this xml has no coding specified in header, X complaints about this line as: Fontconfig error... Cannot read default font file.. Solution: in ebuild file specify "unset LANG; unset LC_ALL;" You have an old fontconfig installed. We hacked that line out in the latest
version .. fontconfig-2.1 ...

<!-- /etc/fonts.conf file to configure system font access -->
<fontconfig>
<!--
The intent of this standard configuration file is to be adequate for
most environments. If you have a reasonably normal environment and
have found problems with this configuration, they are probably
things that others will also want fixed. Please send any suggested
changes to fonts@xfree86.org so that future releases can include
such changes.
Note that the normal 'make install' procedure for XFree86 is to
replace any existing fonts.conf file with the new version. Place
any local customizations in local.conf which this file references.
