Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
Gather Runtime Data only works with TagCache, and I'm not sure how functional it is yet even with that.
The anti-skip buffer tells when it starts refilling the compressed buffer. How much music will be left in it at the time that it spins up the disk to start refilling. Essentially, the higher you set it, the more time your disk has to spin up before the compressed buffer is empty. Lower means better battery life. Higher means less likelihood of skipping if something is preventing your disk from spinning up properly (such as shaking it or whatnot).
Multiple fonts are not possible at this time.
It's very functional. This post of mine covers it briefly: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=5755.msg44595#msg44595But I'm assuming the OP has had TagCache enabled, otherwise he would never have seen the playcount option.

The original firmware would resume playing the radio if you shut down the unit from the radio, Rockbox does not appear to offer this feature (holding Stop while in the radio will briefly flash the main menu then shut down, and resume playing back files instead of the radio).

Okay, imagine that you're using 29mb of memory for compressed audio. The player fills it all up. When it gets down to say, 1mb left, it starts refilling. If you increase the anti-skip buffer, it may refill at 1.5, or 2mb instead. This makes sure that if it can't spin up the disk for some reason, you're less likely to get a skip while it tries again. Of course, this also means the disk spins up more often because less of the full buffer is really getting used.
