I think I can only answer one of you questions - and it's a guess at
that.

After you have compiled/installed the main parts of the Andrew
distribution (overhead, atk, ams) you have to do a 'make install' of
andrew/xmkfontdir which sets up the approripriate fonts.dir and
fonts.alias file in your $DESTDIR/X11fonts directory

If you did do this - then you also need to make sure that
$DESTDIR/X11fonts (in it's expanded form - not $DESTDIR form) appears in
your fontpath - I believe the command would be: xset fp + <path-to-dir>

Hope this helps.
