That seems pretty strange and suggests to me that you have some font-related Debian package installed, that I do not. BTW, like you, I am not running a stand-alone xfs (anymore, after reading recent threads made me understand that I don't need it to get TTF fonts with a XFree86 v4 server); and also like you I have all the directories set up in XF86Config-4 (which does make a difference as I can get "fixed" in other X apps, see it in 'xfontsel' etc.). There is a way that one can find out what *package* a given file in the Debian filesystem tree comes from. It might be a dpkg command or something else, and I cannot recall it right now. I'd be much obliged if you might try to find out which package your file "/etc/fonts/local.conf" comes from and let me know on the List.
