It's like that because whatever you used isn't compiled to use xft, the

You can add the following to your yum conf, or just ftp the rpms from here:

[mozilla-seamonkey]
name=Mozilla SeaMonkey Releases
baseurl=http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/yum/SeaMonkey/releases/current/redhat/$releasever
