One thing I noticed is the xftfont_open is run whenever we call
"emacsclient -c", but xftfont_close is never called.  It appears that
font_open_entity is called to allocate a font object, it is in general
not recorded anywhere.  Could this be part of the problem?

Handa-san, do you have any thoughts?
