I have.  You need an XF86Config file in /etc/X11.  There is
a link to an example XF86Config file in the cygwin/xfree
FAQ or User Guide (I can't get to the site right now to
figure out which one it was).  You need to add your truetype
font dir to the FontPath.  You also need to run ttmkfdir and
mkfontdir.
