The RedHat 7 X server is badly configured, and in the RedHat bug
database you may want to see bugs 28265 (about half way down
on not being able to add Type1 font paths) and 25325.

Just before the Gdk-ERROR there should be a block of debug info
starting "DEBUG: --- setting X font path ..." which contains a print
out of the path we are trying to set. But even without it, form the
output you get with the -1 fix, I can see that the only new element
we are adding to the path is /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/. This is
definitely the RH bug (just try xset +fp /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/, I
am pretty sure you will get the same error code from X), your font
server refuses to add dirs with Type1 fonts to the path.
