First thing to try apparently is move the (potentially) problematic fonts aside and see if that helps.
I don't have any fonts under ${HOME}/.fonts (the personal fontconfig font directory), but this is not a very practical advice:
$ locate .ttf | grep '^/usr/share/fonts/' | wc -l 153
i.e. I have at least 153 truetype fonts which were shipped by redhat to fedora 8. I have excluded /usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF/, and other application-specific directories already.
