I found the reason.
Fonts (not managed by fontconfig, but only by Xserver) are installed
under /usr/share/fonts/X11/ (as well as encondings). The
/ect/X11/xorg.conf file instead uses as FontPath the path
/usr/share/X11/fonts/. In this path there are the usual 100dpi/ 75dpi/
misc/ and Type1/ direct
Forgot to mention: I tried to fix the issue I reported in bug 63373
manually creating symlinks to missing directories and reinstalling
relevant xfont* package. This can't help.
