Hmmm.... now that I look at the "problem" :(

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*/font* is files that's indexing and doing
some namings (especially the fonts.alias file)

These files should then be tracked in special ways, ie. not removed by
xawtv-fonts prior to reinstallation (Especially after a X reinstall/upgrade)

In other words, the developers/module writers, would need to be a tad
more carefull with those files and add special code for them :)=)
