It would be nice to have the applesystemfont package on Panther. The version 1.0-4 from 10.2-gcc3.3 almost works:

It creates /sw/lib/X11/fonts/applettf and populates it with a decent collection of symlinks and ttf fonts and a fonts.dir file. It also does some redundant but innocent stuff related to the defunct /etc/X11/XftConfig.

But then /sw/bin/xfontpath, or rather xset +fp, chokes on the new directory:

% xset +fp /sw/lib/X11/fonts/applettf
xset:  bad font path element (#87), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

It seems there are some bad fonts in that directory. I can go ahead and try each one of the 150 or so entries, but maybe someone did this already or has some higher wisdom that explains which fonts might be offensive to xset?
