SO, how is calibre getting a list of files? Is it attempting to read the entire fonts directory? (if so, why?) Or is it maybe a registry thing?

Windows keeps a list of fonts in the registry. By default, they are in the fonts directory, but there's no reason they have to be there, and some programs put them elsewhere, then put a pointer to them into the registry. Windows uses the registry list to tell programs about the font locations. I suggest you search your registry for fonts and you'll quickly find the list. The fonts that are listed there, but are not in the font directory stick out like a sore thumb due to the path info.
