Mac OSX :

/System/Library/Fonts

But there ain't much fonts there. (about 1 .ttf that seems working)

Debian :

/usr/share/fonts/trutype/**misc-subdirs...
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TIF

If it was through a -fontpath option, a system-wide pdrc would be nice
in /etc/pdrc, let say. Then, we would need a consistent way to
override flags in users' .pdrc. (but, isn't the .pdrc deprecated yet ?
;-))

Anyhow, very good idea !
