If you cannot determine why the X Font Server is dying, then I suggest that you
stop using it, and use the traditional FontPath entries in the Files section of
your configuration file (/etc/X11/XF86Config-4).

e.g.

Section "Files"
	FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
	FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
	FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
...
EndSection

'man XF86Config' for more information
