Hi!
AFAIR you do not need Xft with XFree4.3, so you can try and unmerge it. But make sure before that you have the latest freetype and fontconfig packages installed.
All fontconfiguration takes place now in /etc/fonts. All changes you may want make should go to fonts.local, not fonts.conf. You may loose all your changes when you upgrade if you do lots of stuff to fonts.conf.
Be sure to check the font-paths in fonts.conf. I changed my setting to one path: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts. All subdirectories are included then automagically. This small trick solved some font-problems for me.
The fontpaths in your XF86Config (/etc/X11) should be ok and don't need to be touched. But check if you got DRI set up correctly...
Keep searching for fonts in this forum, there are some good threads around....
Good Luck!
