Interesting. I have both of those, too.  But since only the fonts in directories
I've explicitly added to xorg.conf get found, I don't have the problem.

Perhaps your xorg.conf is set up to include both of those directories in 
its font path?  Can you just remove the FontPath line that enables the
cyrillic fonts?
