Hi,
I would like to add a "catalogue" directory as one of the default
fontpaths for xorg-server. A symlink in the directory is
automatically recognized as a fontpath.
It makes ports which install a new fontset possible to create a new
entry there automatically. This means that the end users do not need
to manually configure FontPath in xorg.conf or use "xset fp". Note
that this affects only the legacy XLFD-based font management, not
newer systems such as fontconfig.
I believe this does not break backward compatibility because the
patch will add it at the tail of the fontpath list.
