[Fontconfig] no fonts

Dear fontconfig.

I am building gnome for solaris with the specs
System = SunOS
Node = wsasd154
Release = 5.8
KernelID = Generic_108528-13
Machine = sun4u
BusType = <unknown>
Serial = <unknown>
Users = <unknown>
OEM# = 0
Origin# = 1
NumCPU = 1

So far I built fontconfig, and GTK and thought everything was fine.
Now that GTK is built, fontconfig fails to find the fonts in the system.

Every app I run using GTK would now say:

No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org

I installed fontconfig under my /usr/local/etc/fonts branch so the my
fonts dir includes:

ls -l /usr/local/etc/fonts
total 19
-rw-r--r--   1 mshepher asd         11454 Apr  2 16:40 fonts.conf
-rw-r--r--   1 mshepher asd          5840 Apr  2 16:40 fonts.dtd
-rw-r--r--   1 mshepher asd           350 Apr  2 16:40 local.conf

I did not edit the configuration files, since I don't know what to
change.

When I run fc-list I get nothing in return:

154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/fc-list > fc-list
154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/fc-list >

154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/fc-cache > fc-cache
154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/fc-cache >

run-test.sh does not produce any error, but also no output.

154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/test > sh run-test.sh
154:mshepher /usr/local/gnome/fontconfig-2.2.2/test >

I also set the env variable
set | grep FONT
DEFAULT_FONT=/usr/lib/fonts/fixedwidthfonts/screen.r.12
FONTCONFIG_FILE=/usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf

Nothing seems to help.

Am I missing somthing?
