      OSFONTDIR = c:/{windows,winnt,winnt35}/fonts//
      TTFONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/truetype//;$OSFONTDIR

    Here, if the environment variable OSFONTDIR is set, $OSFONTDIR in
    texmf.cnf is re-defined.  Or should it be like this:

      OSFONTDIR = /please/set/osfontdir/in/the/environment
      WINFONTDIR = c:/{windows,winnt,winnt35}/fonts//
      TTFONTS = .;$TEXMF/fonts/truetype//;$OSFONTDIR;$WINFONTDIR

    In this case you can use OSFONTDIR to add additional directories.

Yes, that is the question.  

Hans, how have you ended up using/documenting OSFONTDIR?  Which of the
above approaches would work better for you?  You were the one who wanted
it :).

Thanks,
k
