The default fontconfig configuration assumes fonts under /usr/X11R6.
If you haven't installed Xorg or XFree86 there, then you probably
want to adjust it to use the fonts in /usr/openwin - to do this at
build time, simply specify these options when you run the configure script:
--with-default-fonts=/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts
--with-add-fonts=/usr/openwin/lib/locale
You could also just edit fonts.conf to include these lines:
<dir>/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
<dir>/usr/openwin/lib/locale</dir>
