Yes. Could it was introduced before, but for me it became existing
when I updated after receiving your eMail yesterday.

Probably badly expressed. I have two lines in ~/.Xdefaults:
Emacs.FontBackend: x
!Emacs.FontBackend: xft
When the xft option is on, GNU Emacs crashes during start-up.

When using this option on the command line, GNU Emacs works much
faster, when I've configure it before with --enable-font-backend. It
scrolls up or down at normal speed. And there is one more difference:
I can see a file name like
RGB äöüæÆÜÖÄ Kopie.txt
as
RGB äöüæÆÜÖÄ Kopie.txt
while it otherwise is displayed as
RGB aouæÆUOA Kopie.txt

The character as described outside. For example:
[Ȫ] 022A LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS AND MACRON
[ȫ] 022B LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS AND MACRON
[Ȭ] 022C LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH TILDE AND MACRON
[ȭ] 022D LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH TILDE AND MACRON
[Ȯ] 022E LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH DOT ABOVE
[ȯ] 022F LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DOT ABOVE
[Ȱ] 0230 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH DOT ABOVE AND MACRON
[ȱ] 0231 LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DOT ABOVE AND MACRON
It's this file: ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/charsets/utf8.txt
