I note that someone has fixed the fonts in cvs.  So this nearly solves the problem.  I 
have also discovered that what happens now is that fontconfig is searching for a 
nearest fit to "fixed" 9 point on a 100dpi screen and is locating (at least on my system) 
a font called  
 
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/12x13ja.pcf. 
 
This font seems to have an "Additional Style" hint which font config ignores. 
 
I have overcome this by adding the following text to /etc/fonts/local.conf 
<match> 
        <test name="family"> 
                <string>fixed</string> 
        </test> 
        <edit name="family" mode="assign" binding="strong"> 
                <string>console</string> 
        </edit> 
</match> 
 
Now konsole starts perfectly with the console font as the "normal" font.
