   A poorly documented feature in the Sun X server allows vfonts also to
   be loaded. You put the font directory on XFONTPATH.

Or better yet, when making the server edit vssite.h to include your site's
vfont directories (/usr/lib/fonts/fixedwidthfonts over here), in
DEFAULT_FONT_PATH and forget about XFONTPATH (unless you make your
own fonts and keep them somewhere else).
