I finally answered my own question.  After a little more research, the 
culprit turns out to be xfstt --sync, which creates the ttname directory 
which includes the bogus add_style_names.

Basically, it it better to use the X server to get your fonts rather 
than xfstt, since xfstt seems to add these bogus style names that no 
application pays attention to or even want to deal with.  xfstt does 
seem to have benefits of protecting the X server from bogus font 
requests by filtering them through the deficient font protocol, but I 
guess I can live with it for now.

At least now I can use all of my fonts without getting bogus errors from 
applications...
