Well, fp can handle t1 fonts[1] - not that I've ever really tried.
And it's also designed to put symlinks in ~/.fonts, so that won't
really help with system-wide install...  Except perhaps the "pogs"
(font collections) are just text files - you could probably rig up
something to copy them to the system folder...

Let me know if it works out...
