We'd certainly take changes to add greek support to
Sans-serif (or better, 
send the changes to Keith Packard for inclusion in
fontconfig - keithp at keithp.com)

My understanding was that we don't have any greek
fonts in the distribution, though.

Note on the offtopic part:

(monotonic) Greek will work fine if you have the
fonts.

The common set of free TrueType Greek fonts is:

 - Rather low quality outlines
 - Named using trademarked names
 - Of questionable origin

So it's not really shippable. I have some plans to
convert the
OmegaSerifGreek font we ship as part of TeX into a
usable form.

The FreeFront project
(http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/freefont/)
includes Greek, you might want to install that. (There
are some format
issues that make it undesirable for inclusion in Red Hat.)
