Dear Emacs Developers,

In an emacs built from yesterday's (2013-11-12) sources, I'm seeing
the following problem:

emacs -q

If I then evaluate the following form:

  (set-face-font 'default "-*-dejavu sans
mono-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1")

and start gnus:

  M-x gnus

then results in characters written as hex codes with boxes drawn
around them; see the attached file.

This is on a Fedora 19 system.  The dejavu sans mono font is installed:

xlsfonts -fn "-*-dejavu sans mono-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1"
  ==> -misc-dejavu sans mono-medium-r-normal--12-87-100-100-m-0-iso8859-1

I have a build of emacs from 2013-10-15 that does not exhibit this behavior.

Regards,
  Vin Shelton
