I was coming to the conclusion that you need to do all three: mkfontdir, then restart xfs, then shut X down completely and restart it. For those of us who use kickstart files, adding a suitable mkfontdir to the post-installation stuff should be an acceptable workaround. I read the bug report to which you referred, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=174416. Please check to see that all font packages do the right thing. I installed several fonts. If the scripts are missing only from the one package, doing so should have cured the problem.
