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.

If you want a workaround try using x rather than freetype:

 emacs -xrm 'Emacs.FontBackend: x' -fn '-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-m-*-iso10646-1'

I found that the following works: If you want to see what fonts are
available for the xft backend use (if it's installed):

 fc-list : family charset

Emacs rejects fonts with insufficient characters (I guess),
the ones that work for me are the ones with a long charset string.

The following change might come in handy until the backend and
fontconfig do a better job of resolving fonts.  The DejaVu
font looks good, "Courier STD" is available with Adobe Reader 8
(after modifying your .fonts.config).

Since sometime after the font-backend merge, the same errors are 
occuring on Windows when backwards compatible xlfd strings are used to 
specify fonts. They did not occur before the font-backend merge in 
either trunk or font-backend branch.

frame-notice-user-settings: Font `-outline-DejaVu Sans 
Mono-normal-r-normal-normal-*-100-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1' is not defined

C-u C-x = on a character after setting the font to "DejaVu Sans Mono-10" 
shows the font name as:

-outline-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-mono-13-*-*-*-m-*-iso10646-1

In particular "normal" in the slant field seems wrong.

Thanks for the workaround.

My point was that everything was fine until a few weeks ago. Emacs could
find all the fonts it needed. Why break this?
