this is what i get when trying to launch some application with wine or winex

Code:

27015
Building font metrics. This may take some time...
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  45 (X_OpenFont)
  Value in failed request:  0x400198
  Serial number of failed request:  1381
  Current serial number in output stream:  1382


x says this when starting..

xset: bad font path element (#173), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect server address or syntax


i have x version 4.3

I get exactly the same message running winex, trying to open any windows binary. I noticed that there are similar threads with the same problem, but the only solution mentioned so far involves downgrading glibc.

I wonder -- has anyone else managed to find a fix for this? It's really very annoying, and I don't want to have to switch back to Xfree4.2
