Unfortunately that is not it. - The problem you had on windows was that 
doxygen provided an incorrect fontpath to dot. - In this case the path is
correct -- as seen by that the error message from dot explicitly says
that it is looking in the current directory for the doxfont -- and  I have 
verified that the doxfont.ttf is actually created in that directory, so the 
real question is why dot wont use the file. 
It might be that dot now expects an index file of all fontfiles in that 
directory or something similar. Of course I can figure that out by reading 
the source, but being lazy, I hope that there are someone around  
that has already solved the problem.
