I think Thomas is right: a unique setting should be used to override
the font install dir.

It might look like this in menuconfig:

      *** X libraries and helper libraries ***
  ()  Force all fonts to be installed here {*}
  [*] DejaVu (Free fonts)  --->
  [ ] Liberation (Free fonts) 
      *** X Window managers ***

{*} if this is empty, each font .mk will install in the default directory,
as liberation does in current head;
otherwise all fonts will be copied in the directory specified.

How about this?

Luca
