But there is no `cronyx' or `rawin-r' anywhere in the code of Emacs, so it
must get some "help" from somewhere in order to choose this font.
Normally for charset <foo> it looks for fonts with names of the form
*-...-*-*-<foo>, so there has to be something somewhere that tells Emacs to
use `rawin-r'.

Can you do `M-x describe-face RET default RET' and tell us which
font Emacs says it's using ?
Can you then do M-x describe-fontset RET <the name> RET and show
us what that says ?
