bug#5646: 23.1.50; URW Gothic L and URW Chancery L don't work; possibly others

[Iain Dalton]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

When I shift click in Emacs and “Change Buffer Font...”, choosing URW
Gothic L or URW Chancery L do nothing, while some other URW fonts work.
I haven’t had any problems with other fonts, but I haven’t tried many.
I have URW Gothic L version 1.06.  Someone else in #emacs on freenode
has the same problem (he had URW Gothic L as his modeline face, and it
stopped working one day, presumably when he upgraded part of his
system).

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.1.50/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

That's a little old, can you try the current trunk or the latest
emacs-snapshot?

That's the latest emacs-snapshot on Ubuntu 9.10. I get the same
problem with the emacs23 package (dated 2009-11-17). I'll try the
latest trunk ASAP.

OK, but please keep 5646@debbugs in the cc.

I have checked in a fix.  Thanks for the bug report.
