I think that in general if a directory is used by a couple of more or less 
unrelated ports (as opposed to eg. parts of gnome that use their own port to 
handle shared dirs) it should be in mtree file. That's why I left fonts/local 
in proposed mtree. fonts/TTF is location where TrueType fonts from either of 
X11 distributions go and it seems that fonts/TrueType is where other ports 
put them (at least a quick grep through pkg-plist files shows that other 
ports don't install into fonts/TTF).
Both are also in common directory for X11 fonts, so they would adhere to some 
imaginary vague definition of hier, probably :)

PS.:
If I may kidnap this thread for related question:
From testing xorg upgrade with dirs migrated from mtree to pkg-plists on 
pointyhat-like tinderbox (taken from marcuscom) I get such errors:
=== Checking filesystem state
list of files present before this port was installed but missing after it was 
deinstalled
./usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config missing
================================================================
Now the question is would this be ignored on pointyhat checks untill mtree is 
updated or do all the fixes be done at same time? (I know I asked before, but 
now I've actually seen what error this would seem to produce on pointyhat.)
