Strangely, after upgrade libxft2 to 2.1.8.2-3, the problem disappeared.
(Actually, I did upgrade a bunch of packages that is uploaded after I
 reported the bug. I remember that libxft2 is in the upgrade package
 list.)
Therefore, this case may be closed.

I didn't installed local font config.

Thank you, anyway.
