What about doing something like this in your config

  (console-font-service "tty1"
                        (file-append some-font-package
                                     "/share/consolefonts/whatever"))

?

Does it work for you?

This approach has the advantage that the service doesn’t need to be
changed, and it doesn’t need to change the current directory of PID 1
either.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
