Hi Michael,

a while ago I've reported a bug against Emacs not respecting font-face
settings when --daemon was in use (a feature provided by current Emacs
snapshot). It has been discovered that the bug is triggered by Viper,
when it is not configured to be loaded the bug vanishes.

The full bug story is available at
http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1078.

Can you maybe have a look?

Many thanks in advance,
Cheers.
