Turns out this is not the case - emacs started up in a 168x61 frame this morning, with adobe-courier set as font. So it just seems to show up much less often. Given that I'm on a system that I can't update (all new packages require kernel 2.6, which doesn't support the system's RAID controller), could it be that an outdated gtk and/or X is causing the problem?
