Something in the latest round of font changes has messed up my bold
fonts again.

It appears to be this problem again:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-05/msg00017.html

Namely, Emacs is overstriking rather than choosing a true bold font.

C-u x = reports:

default: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1 (#x69) 
bold   : -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1 (#x6E)

The bold font should be:

-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1 (#x70)

In ~/.Xdefaults I have:

Emacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-120-100-100-c-*-iso8859-1


Reverting fixes it:
cvs up -D '20080519' font.h emacs.c  Makefile.in font.c fontset.c xfaces.c

I installed a fix.  If you still see the problem, please run
Emacs as this:
% EMACS_FONT_LOG=1 emacs
and show me the result of M-x font-show-log RET.

It doesn't compile.

Thanks, it's fine again now.

BTW, have you noticed this font-related warning:

  widget.c: In function 'update_from_various_frame_slots':
  widget.c:662: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type

No.  Ummm, I've never read widget.c and etc.  Could someone
tell me how and when the following `font' member is used
(defined in widgetprv.h)?

typedef struct {
  struct frame*	frame;		/* the *emacs* frame object */
[...]
  XFontStruct*	font;			/* font */
[...]
} EmacsFramePart;

widget.c is very ugly, and I think it would be good for someone
to redesign the Xt code from scratch.

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.0) of
2008-05-23 on escher, which contains your fix, variable-pitch face with
bold weight is not realized as family Helvetica, at least in many cases
(but see the bottom of this post).  For example, info-menu-header, which
has the latter attributes, is realized as -Adobe-Adobe
Courier-bold-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1, and info-title-1,
which inherits these attributes, is realized as -unknown-DejaVu
Serif-bold-normal-normal-*-21-*-*-*-*-0-iso8859-1.  I see this both when
I start Emacs with -fn "Dejavu Sans Mono-10" and also with -fn "Adobe
Helvetica-10".

IIUC, Emacs only finds bold Helvetica in 18pt size?  Yet when I start
Emacs with -fn "Adobe Helvetica-10", it uses -Adobe-Adobe
Helvetica-normal-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 for normal
text, and I can add the bold text property and the face is realized as
-Adobe-Adobe Helvetica-bold-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1.
Nevertheless, as noted above, the Info headers are realized with
different fonts.

This was evidently due to just using the xft backend; after adding the x
backend, the bold faces that inherit variable-pitch face are also
realized by Helvetica font.
