Gem uses Pd's open_canvas() to find fonts.
simply add /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType or whatever 
to your "-path".

also, when compiling Gem you can specify a default font (with full path).

also, as user you can override the default font in your gem.conf.

finally, adding font-search mechanisms to Gem is very low on the 
priority list.
