/private/etc/fonts/fonts.conf says:

<!-- Font directory list configured on Tue Apr 13 17:36:38 PDT 2004 -->

        <dir>/Library/Fonts</dir>
        <dir>/Network/Library/Fonts</dir>
        <dir>/System/Library/Fonts</dir>
        <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
        <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
        <dir>~/Library/Fonts</dir>
        <dir>~/.fonts</dir>

I also tried with creating a ~/.fonts.conf and putting

                <family>Sabon Roman Oldstyle Figures</family>

or

                <family>Sabon-RomanOsF</family>

in it. No go.

Still the font /is/ in ~/.fonts.cache-1

"/Users/chris/.fonts/Sabon-RomanOsF.ttf" 0 1130628605
