Try adding this to /etc/fonts/local.conf

<match target="pattern">
  <test name="family">
    <string>Courier</string>
  </test>
  <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
    <string>Courier New</string>
  </edit>
</match>

It will mean that you wont be able to select plain Courier in any app
which takes font info from fontconfig (gtk2/kde3).
