Font `-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-m-*-iso10646-1' is not defined

[Michael Kifer <kifer@cs.sunysb.edu>]

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

   The latest CVS version of emacs cannot find fonts. When I start emacs, it
   says:
   Font `-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-m-*-iso10646-1' is not defined
   and quits.
   Earlier versions did not have this problem. This font is defined:
   xfontsel has no trouble finding it.
