The patch is ready, but I'm still testing it on some ports. Luckily, it will 
not affect anything which doesn't set INSTALLS_FONTS=yes, so I will be 
able to push it to x11@  for review before having patches for every port.

Currently I've set FONTDIR?=${PORTNAME:C/[-_]fonts?$//}, but I'm not 
sure I should affect by default the installation directory (non-X.Org fonts 
get installed to /usr/local/share/fonts/${FONTDIR}, just for your 
information). Do you think I should revert it to FONTDIR?=${PORTNAME}?

By the way, it installs a default pkg-message for non-X.Org ports if none 
was provided. I hope this won't be considered too hackish. :)
