 When I was using Port "gnuplot" to create some PNG and JPEG figures, which
 uses Port "gd2" for this, I was getting errors about the fonts not being
 found. A few lines of these errors are shown below.

 $ gnuplot gnuplot.commands
 gdImageStringFT: Could not find/open font while printing string  0 with
 font arial
 gdImageStringFT: Could not find/open font while printing string  10 with
 font arial
 ...

 If this helps, the site http://www.groupsrv.com/computers/about265948.html
 mentions that GDFONTPATH may not be setup properly.

 My environment:
 MacBook Pro (1st gen)
 Mac OS X 10.5.2 (fully up-to-date)
 Xcode 3.0 (latest AFAIK without iPhone dev)
 XQuartz 2.1.4 (latest)
