Well, I'm not against "type1" (which is "on" by default on both
XFree-4.x and 3.x, BTW), but my point is that user doesn't usually
have to manually tweak FontPath unless he is going to display Abi on
remote display. Therefore, either correct message to match reality or
backout your change completely. We don't need to supply our users with
absolutely useless recommendations.

Thanks!
