(1) I have no reason to believe that we are missing any fonts, so
providing the Ultrix fonts is probably unnecessary.  (As I pointed out
in my response to jhawk's message, xess looks just fine if you
simply remove certain directories from the font path.)

(2) We don't control the font path; that's controlled by
/etc/XF86Config, which is set up by the user in one of a wide variety
of ways.
