+1 on concept.

I know some dists are using a simple patch such as:

diff --git a/dix/dixfonts.c b/dix/dixfonts.c
index 416adb3..719bca4 100644
--- a/dix/dixfonts.c
+++ b/dix/dixfonts.c
@@ -1907,12 +1907,9 @@ InitFonts (void)
 {
     patternCache = MakeFontPatternCache();
 
-#ifdef BUILTIN_FONTS
     BuiltinRegisterFpeFunctions();
-#else
     FontFileRegisterFpeFunctions();
     fs_register_fpe_functions();
-#endif
 }
 
 int

A more complete patch is warranted, but perhaps just forcing built-ins
as the last entry of the fontpath is sufficient?
