In my case, that's almost equal to yours.

I see.  FYI, I have no X resouce for Emacs since I'd like to
specify everything in the ~/.emacs file (so, -Q option makes
a true vanilla Emacs in a sense).  Now I have only the following
fontset things for Emacs Unicode-2.

(cond
 ((string-match "\\`6" mule-version)
  (set-fontset-font
   "-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-default"
   'japanese-jisx0208
   "-sony-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-jisx0208.1983-0")
  (set-fontset-font
   "-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-default"
   'latin-jisx0201
   "-sony-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-jisx0201.1976-0")
  ;; Euro sign.
  (set-fontset-font
   "-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-default"
   'latin-iso8859-15
   "-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")))

(I don't know why the all-wild font spec for Latin-9 works.)

Thanks.  Have a nice weekend.
