Error with xvfb fonts path

Hello,
I have downloaded xfree86-4.0-Xvfb.tar.bz2 along with
everything it takes to work. And indeed, everything works
properly when installed right in [DRIVE:]/usr/X11R6...
The problem is that I HAVE to install it in another
directory. And then xvfb fails because it does not find
needed fonts, even when I start it with "-fp" command line
option.
Am I misunderstanding something about this option?
Does anybody knows of a way to do this ? (recompile
with another RootDir is not an option, because
installation directory will vary from one system to
another).
Any help appreciated.

Here is the output I get (Dir1, Dir2, Dir3 are something
like e:/My/Install/Dir/usr/X11R6/lib/... Fonts dirs are
installed in Dir3)
