An excellent point. Moreover, recent versions of X don't require XFS at
all, because they have built-in font servers (including TrueType
support via the Freetype library). I think I remember reading
somewhere that you should avoid using XFS if you can help it-- it's
just another service to worry about. ;)
HTH,
