Another data point if anyone cares.  :)
 
I had to reimage my Windows machine.  After I did this and reinstalled
nxclient 1.5 and the additional fonts, connecting to the same linux box
and running xfontsel shows approximately 3000 installed fonts.  I
haven't changed anything on the linux box.

apparently, nobody knows the answer. I have been posting (with debug
logs) about missing fonts when connecting from windows for quite some
time but nobody knows. It seems to me that windows client has a bug and
it is not reading the client side font directories at all.
