You don't.  From the :help -->

'guifont' 'gfn'         string  (default "")
                        global
                        {not in Vi}
                        {only available when compiled with GUI enabled}
        This is a list of fonts which will be used for the GUI version of Vim.
<elided>
        For the GTK+ 2 GUI the font name looks like this: >
            :set guifont=Andale\ Mono\ 11
<       That's all.  XLFDs are no longer accepted.

So... either you build a GTK1/Motif/xaw vesion of the package, you build it
from sources yourself, or you find a font that's both known to fontconfig
and that you can live with.
