Just to note, the Linux install script (binaryInstall.src) runs 
g.mkfontcap outside of a GRASS session by simply setting GISRC to a junk 
value:

GISBASE="$DESTDIR" GISRC=junk LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR="${DESTDIR}/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR" "${DESTDIR}/bin/g.mkfontcap" -o

(In Windows the equivalent would be to run the command
set GISRC=junk
before running g.mkfontcap)
Not 100% sure if that's relevant here, but thought it might be worth 
mentioning to give some context.
