I use ttmkfdir instead - works like a charm. I don't know why in some distros (and some versions of distros) its missing - even though mkfontdir does recgonize truetypes, it doesn't handle them as nicely as it's younger sibling.
One more thing - when I leached TTFs of my WindowsXP disk, I noticed that X doesn't like some of the fonts there, and compensate by removing the entire path element from the fonts list. I haven't yet had the time to check which fonts exactly cause the trouble (I'm almost never using X on that machine).
