Before I start digging into how we handle :size in a fontset, I have
two questions:

 . did you reset use-default-font-for-symbols to nil? without that,
   Emacs prefers to use the default face's font for punctuation and
   symbols, effectively disregarding the fontsets
 . which fonts did you find problematic in this case? you say
   "specific fonts", but it is not clear which fonts exhibit this
   behavior

Thanks.
