Commenting out the line from .Xdefaults as

  !Emacs.FontBackend: ftcrhb,xft,x

has the effect of

  : % emacs &
  : % libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
  : libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

that results in all the X fonts from the remotely run emacs being chunky
ugly, again.

The fonts look how they ought to be having in the .Xdefaults

  Emacs.FontBackend: ftcrhb,xft,x
