Find all of the executable binaries on your system, and run 'ldd' on
them.  If they're linked to libX11, but not to libXft, then they're
probably using the fonts provided by the server, and thus, xfs.

The above test may not be sufficient if you find a program that is
linked to a UI library which is, in turn, linked to libXft, while the
binary executable is not linked directly to libXft.  This should not be
the case for most programs, but appears to be for OpenOffice.org.
