This is a bit of a stab in the dark, but...

Does your system contain a file

/etc/X11/fs/config.rpmnew

?

If so, this indicates that a Fedora upgrade wanted to change your font
configuration, but didn't, because it was too polite to overwrite your
existing config.  That happened to me a few months back, and various
applications started giving error messages very similar to the ones
you've received from Axiom.  If you're in the same position, you could
try saving your previous font config with something like

mv /etc/X11/fs/config /etc/X11/fs/config.rpmsave

then implementing the changes Fedora wanted to make with

mv /etc/X11/fs/config.rpmnew /etc/X11/fs/config

You'll probably need to do a

/etc/init.d/xfs restart

to get the changes to take effect.
