I did, and it works well. I just picked the latest emacs22 as packaged
by Debian, modified it slightly and built my own .debs with just a few
temporary setbacks.

The plain non-Gtk version happily uses the "fixed" font. And as a
bonus, I could enable the traditional Emacs scrollbar. I had forgotten
how much better I liked that one compared to the "toolkit" scrollbar!

Thanks for your help, everybody.
