That's probably not the solution ... it's just a part! IMO, based on  
heuristics, it would work with less asterisks in XLFD, i.e. when they  
are substituted with real values.

I have in ~/.Xdefaults the definition of a fontset, and this fontset  
is then used as value for the Emacs.Font resource. GNU Emacs 21.3.50  
does not like it when the fontset has too many asterisks ...
