bug#8649: 24.0.50; Face customization interface broken

[Tim Cross <tcross@une.edu.au>]

This is observed with current emacs from BZR revno 104190 and running
as emacs -Q

When you do M-x customize-face, the standard high level custom interface
for setting font attributes is no longer used. Instead, you get a 'raw'
lisp expression without any of the normal custom widgests or extras,
such as the interactive lookup of face colours etc. i.e. what I see now is

Custom settings cannot be saved; maybe you started Emacs with `-q'.
For details, see Saving Customizations in the Emacs manual.

 Operate on all settings in this buffer:

Hide Default face: [sample]
    State : STANDARD.
   Basic default face.

Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a
touch of genius (and a lot of courage) to move in the opposite direction.
