Not exactly an answer, but more of a question. The recent X releases
support ttf's out of the box without the need for xfstt. Should one
use it with X.org to support ttf's? Since, I am still on xfree86, I am
just curious.

By improvement do you mean that you are not seeing the fonts or the
quality of rendering has not changed? The latter might be due to
antialiasing (on/off).

It is now pitch dark.  If you proceed, you will likely fall into a pit.
