On two different machines I get

Font `fontset-16' is not defined

This has been the case for a while.  What is one supposed to do?

Please reply to the bug you've already opened instead of filing two 
identical new ones.

How do you set the default font of Emacs?  By X resource, by
a code in .emacs, or by -fn argument?

I have tried not saying anything and then I got the message about
fontset-16.  I did get a working system by starting an old emacs,
finding out the default font and then using -fn to select that.

I have never tinkered with X resource, and the only font stuff in
.emacs is font-lock

Seems fixed at present.

That's good.  But as I didn't commit a fix specific to this
problem, I still feal a little bit uneasy about a hidden
bug.

First of all, I wonder why your Emacs complained about
fontset-16 which is not created by default.  I suspect some
of your (or system's) setting creates and use it.

What is shown by M-x list-fontsets RET?
What is shown by ESC : (face-attribute 'default :fontset) RET
What is shown by:
  % xrdb -query|grep -i fontset

Hmmm, then you should have site-start.el or default.el that
define those fontsets somewhere in your emacs installation
directory.

And that file sets the default font to "fontset-16".

Could you please find that file and show me how fontset-16
is defined?
