Adding stock fonts?

$

Languages that have glyphs that are not present in stock fonts will be displayed as squares.

It is possible to fix this issue by adding fonts in the usual way, in the /fonts/ folder on the root of the user-visible internal kobo storage. This works, but these fonts are only loaded once an ebook/article is viewed. Therefore every time the device is rebooted all file names with those unsupported glyphs are displayed as squares until an ebook/article is launched. So I want to load these files on boot by adding them as system fonts.

I've tried copying the new fonts into what I believe is the fonts stash, /usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.6.2-arm/lib/fonts/ and the fonts are not recognized, so it's probably going by some database file to fetch the file list... anyone figured it out yet?
