It works fine for me using Debian's 24.1 package (ie, the GTK+ version),
started with -q (not -Q because that ignores X resources), under XFCE,
with an X resource of the form:
Emacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-140-75-75-c-90-iso8859-1
I can't remember whether Gnome settings will take precedence if Gnome
services are running. So suggestion 1 is to recompile --without-gconf
--without-gsettings and see if it makes a difference.
Suggestion 2 is to try specifying the font completely in X resources.
