Hi, all.

I have been making patches to fix the problem for the following ports:

(In reply to Yasuhito FUTATSUKI from comment #2)
> japanese/font-elisa10
> japanese/font-elisa8
> japanese/font-kaname12
> japanese/font-kanji18
> japanese/font-kanji26
> japanese/font-kappa20
> japanese/font-mona
> japanese/font-naga10
> japanese/font-shinonome

and

 japanese/font-ayu18
 japanese/font-ayu20
 japanese/font-mplus-bitmap

The outline is:

(1) Install font files to ${FONTSDIR} instead of ${DATADIR}.
(2) Stop to make symbolic links from the font files to 
    ${PREFIX}/share/fonts/misc/, which is found in the default font path.
(3) Add (or revert) pkg-message.in to display additional font path settings:

| *******************************************************************
| You can start using the font(s) by following these instructions:
| 
| Either type the following in an X terminal:
| 
|         xset fp+ %%FONTSDIR%%
|         xset fp rehash
| 
| Or, more permanently, add the following line to the "Files" section
| of your X.Org configuration file (typically /etc/X11/xorg.conf):
| 
|         FontPath "%%FONTSDIR%%/"
| 
| then restart X.
| *******************************************************************

If there is a more better solution, please tell me.
