bug#2426: 23.0.90; .Xdefaults break emacs on MacOsX

[Adrian Robert]

Hi,

Are you 100% you are running the emacs you are reporting the bug from  
when you get the crash you describe?  The config info says "--with- 
ns" and "apple-appkit", but:

1) ~/.Xdefaults is not read when running under NS
2) It is impossible to type "M-x set-default-font monaco 14" as you  
describe -- completion fails.

bug#2426: marked as done (23.0.90; .Xdefaults break emacs on MacOsX)
