Well, the Microsoft fonts may be available to download at no cost,
but they are not Free as in freedom and free as in the GPL 'g' in
gEDA.

There are plenty of outstanding free fonts out there to use.  And
moreover, as I said before, gEDA should not require any specific
font.  Each font provides metrics that allow applications to lay
out text in the font in a generic way, without any prior knowledge
of the font.
