What's the best way to do this?  Should I

  (a) Disable debconf control of the "Files" section, and craft my own?

  (b) Install "xfs", and allow TrueType fonts to be supplied via
      "unix/:7100"?
  (c) Install "xfs-xtt", and allow TrueType font to be supplied via
      "unix/:7110"?
  (d) Some other even better way?
I added this to the begining of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4:

## my changes ##

FontPath        "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID/"
FontPath        "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType/"
### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION
# XF86Config-4 (XFree86 server configuration file) generated by dexconf, the
# Debian X Configuration tool, using values from the debconf database.
# . . .
Whether I'm sure it actually works is another matter altogether ;-)
