IMHO, the style of the default font in d.* modules (Map Display) is pretty
outdated (and ugly). I suggest to change default font, Roman simplex, to
something more concordant with nowadays font style such as **sans-
regular** or so.

Comment:

While I am all for such a change we need to be sure that the new default
font is actually present on the user system (the built-in Hershey fonts
are shipped with GRASS GIS).

In case we need a fall-back logic a built-in font when the new default
font (I suppose true-type) isn't there.
