I don't where, from which programme, this statement comes from, you
can determine the font path the X server uses by running
xset q
Besides this a user side font management exists: libfontconfig.
Commands like fc-list, fc-cache, or fc-match are related to this and
files like fonts.conf. The X resource (Emacs.)FontBackend, which can
have the values xft, ftx, or x, I think, sets the order by which GNU
Emacs will check if the fonts system supplies the specified font. The
font backends used can depend on the libraries found on the system.
