Maybe you can try what Jeremy suggested to me:

If you have the fonts somewhere (maybe from OpenBSD under /usr/X11R6), you =
can=20
put a symlink to them somewhere under /usr/pkg. Something like this:

/usr/pkg/xorg/lib/X11/fonts ---> /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts
/usr/pkg/lib/X11/fonts ---> /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

This worked for me.

It's from the OpenBSD sources? Then likely it is not Xorg but XFree86. The=

fonts will still work, however.
