That looks odd to me. The file fonts.cache-1 should not be executable for 
root and the directories should have the x bit set for both group and 
other. On my system (Dapper) it is

-rw-r--r--  1 root root   37 2007-03-29 13:36 fonts.cache-1
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 2007-03-23 15:53 truetype/
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root 4096 2006-08-06 02:01 type1/

Maybe there are some other permissions wrong in subdirectories? To fix 
them all, you could try this:

sudo find /usr/share/fonts -type d -exec chmod -v 755 {} \;
sudo find /usr/share/fonts -type f -exec chmod -v 644 {} \;
