Any ideas?



You are probably missing the scaleable fonts, which are not installed by
default. Try installing the xorg-x11-fscl package.

What do you mean from scratch?  Compiled from source? or newly
installed from setup?

I think you just need to follow the instructions given.  Not all X
apps use fontconfig.
