Both prc and txt are handled by MobiPocket. And, as tribble has said, there is no sane way (for now).

[crazy mathod follows, just for information]
If you have the reflash option, you may be able to interchange the VeraSe (serif) and the normal font (Vera) in the following directory (also the VeraBd and VeraSeBd), but I won't dare to do it (it may have a lot of undesirable effects or even make the iliad not able to boot):

/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-western-default/
[end of crazy method]

Summing it up, the best option is to wait until they make the font user-selectable.
