The X server is what directly controls the display in question.

I don't know what "dillo" is, but...

It uses GTK on the machine where it runs, i.e. the "host PC". If it
uses GTK 1.2, it uses server-side fonts only (i.e., fonts accessed by
the X server running on the "target"), as far as I know, but somebody
else should confirm this. Later GTK and Pango versions use client-side
fonts.

You renamed which X11R6 directory, the one on the "host PC" or the
"target"? If you renamed the X11R6 directory on the "host PC", X
client software like dillo won't find their shared libraries.

Hmm, "x-server library" doesn't really mean anything. If you mean the
X11 and GTK shared libraries (typically libX11.so, libgtk.so, etc),
then the dillo program uses the libraries from the same machine where
it runs. And the X server uses libraries on the machine where it
runs. The X server does not use many of libraries that X clients use,
especially not libX11.so, and of course no GTK libraries either.
