Comment(by Peter_Dyballa@…):

 Launching xorg-server @1.7.6 without my ~/.xinitrc shows that it can use
 shell scripts in ~/.xinitrc.d! Renaming that directory, Font Path is
 indeed re-established and I have *almost* your value: I have an additional
 ~/.fonts directory in it...

 But why is it using the fonts of the system's (could be: old) X11
 installation? I would have assumed it uses those (modern ones?) from
 MacPorts...

 Anyway, it's nice to see that xorg-server-devel and xorg-server can work
 with (shell) scripts in ~/.xinitrc.d! So it's time that a documentation
 comes up helping to make the transition from ~/.xinitrc to "modular"
 ~/.xinitrc.d...
