After downloading those fonts and trimming the .fonts.conf file down
to a very minimum (just the dir for the fonts), my program now works.
I also experimented with putting the X11 fonts dir in the .fonts.conf
file and running fc-cache (as root) and it seems to now let me use
some of the fonts in the X11 installation dir.  I appreciate your help
immensely.

Thanks,
