Forgot to mention that I also tried

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/backup-versioned/2004-03-19T052000/usr/lib:/backup-versioned/2004-03-19T052000/lib /backup-versioned/2004-03-19T052000/usr/bin/ttmkfdir

and verified with strace that it actually loads the libraries from
/backup-versioned/2004-03-19T052000. Still crashes.

However, when I replace /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/ with the older
version, it works. The failing encodings directory is from
xorg-x11-base-fonts-0.0.6.6-0.0.2004_03_11.9, the working is from
XFree86-base-fonts-4.3.0-63.

I'll file a bugzilla case.
