We really shouldn't need to do that, the fonts should be loaded from the standard install dir. If that doesn't work for some reason it needs to be fixed.

Do you mean that GDI should try to load fonts from the build tree if it can't find them in windows/fonts? If yes, then why do we create symlinks to programs and copy wine.inf to windows/inf?

GDI should load the fonts from the font path; if users want to run from the build tree they have to set the font path accordingly. The symlinks we create are because apps need them, not because of Wine. If you have an app that needs a font file then it's another issue, but Wine itself should not depend on that.
