What about xterm?  You can't break xterm! :-)

xterm links against libfreetype and libfontconfig, but if I stop xfs or
clear the X server font path, xterm will not start.  I still use plain
old 6x13 (aka fixed) as my terminal font of choice.  Is there a way to
get the equivalent font without old-style core fonts?

xterm supports Xft/fontconfig, you simply need to pass the right
commandline options to it.

man xterm
