Xnest does not use xorg.conf. You have to specify the fontpath with the  -fp
option (eg Xnest -fp tcp/fontserver:7100)

about /usr/share/fonts/*:
Xnest uses the fontpath configured while building X11. If you configure X11 to
search fonts in /usr/share/fonts at buildtime then Xnest will find then. Unless
you do so Xnest will use ProjectRoot/lib/X11/fonts as its fontdir
