XFree86 is not going to add additional 8-bit fonts. It is more likely to
remove some in future releases.

Real answer: Use UTF-8 instead of CP 1257, which has all the required
characters and more. http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html

Pragmatic answer: It is trivial to generate any desired 8-bit PCF font from
the files in http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/download/ucs-fonts.tar.gz
