I recently made some additional tweaks to the font selection code.  Do
you observe any difference in behavior?

I can't reproduce this on i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9.  Could
you provide your .Xresources file and GTK version?

Please also provide an exact recipe beginning with `emacs -Q'.

Thanks.

[cvs version 2008-08-11, gtk, running within KDE 3]

I've just selected

  Options->Set Default Font->DejaVu Sans Mono, Book, 14pt

Doing the same a second time, it is usual behaviour in most
applications to present the previously selected font as the default
(as a visual guide so that the user knows which font is currently
selected).  However, emacs doesn't do that.  It presents

  Sans, Standard, 12pt

instead.  This looks like a bug since other previously selected fonts
*are* presented correctly as the default.
