That can't get us what those that come with the tarball can, whithout any  
need of depend on all those things after print/p5-type1inst, including X11.

The main objection to the tarball fonts.scale was the extrange mixture  
between URW and Adobe names.

The first solution was use sed, but seems to be a extrange interaction  
between sed and make in FreeBSD-5.x (It works on FreeBSD-4.x).

I don't expect major changes to this port, so I prefer use a hand-teawk  
fonts.scale with Adobe foundries and families where required.

I someone can analyse or solve the make/sed problem (The second sed  
command always get a NULL file), I may rework in the original form.

But with all X11 apps going to libXFT, I think that it isn't a real need.
